Young Carer Leaflets

Following on from our launch of the NEW Young Carers leaflet on Young Carers Action Day. Staff from Dundee Carers Centre were back in the office to make up packs for all Dundee schools.

Carers Support Workers connected to each primary and secondary school in Dundee, will get the packs handed into the Young Carer Co-ordinators in the next coming weeks.

This is going to be a great tool to spark up conversations and help to identify more young cares in Dundee schools. Its purpose is to explain in brief what a young carer is and signpost to members of staff who to contact.
