Information and advice for young carers and young adult carers in relation to Covid-19
Thursday 26th March 2020
Information and advice for young carers and young adult carers, in relation to Covid-19, is now on the Carer Support Wiltshire website
- Young adult carers (16-25): https://www.yacbook.co.uk/post/staying-calm-in-a-crisis-coronavirus-and-caring
- Young carers: https://carersupportwiltshire.co.uk/young-carers/news/coronavirus-and-young-carers/
The council’s young carers team will be in touch with your school to let you know which of your pupils are known to them to be young carers.
Schools can continue to refer young carers for assessment via DART. Assessments will be by telephone.
Schools who are concerned about a young carer can contact MASH on 0300 456 0108
