Our autumn half term programmes will be taking place between Monday 27 October and Friday 31 October.

Many young people don’t see themselves as young carers. However, if you are looking after someone with a disability, long-term physical illness, mental health condition, or drug and alcohol problems, then we can help.

View the young carers programme here, or contact yh.youngcarers@hackney.gov.uk  to learn more the group.
