Nottinghamshire Young Carers Service

Are you a young person aged 7-17 years old, who cares for a family member in Nottinghamshire? If so, the Young Carers Service is here for information, advice, support... and fun!

What is the Nottinghamshire Young Carers Service?

As a young carer, you'll be providing care for a parent, grandparent, brother or sister, or maybe somebody else. This is probably because they have an illness or disability, a mental health problem or problems with addiction to alcohol or drugs.

The Nottinghamshire Young Carers Service is here to help young carers take breaks and get hold of information, advice and support when it's needed.

We hold regular events where young carers across the county can meet, make new friends and learn new skills – as well as trying lots of fun activities.

COVID-19 update: Our services are still running! During the pandemic we have continued to support young carers with largely virtual events and support.

Some of our recent activities have included:

Arts and crafts
Fun & games
Competitions
Online meet-ups
Cooking lessons
Learning first aid

The Nottinghamshire Young Carers Service is funded by Nottinghamshire County Council and the NHS. It covers the county of Nottinghamshire, and it’s run alongside our Nottinghamshire Carers Hub.
