Young carers work incredibly hard to take care of their loved ones. This could involve daily household tasks, mental health support, helping a loved one get showered and/or dressed and much much more.

It is a 24/7 responsibility - up to 50 hours a week (hence the 50 swims) and on top of that they go to school, college, university or work. It's just their way of life. This can ultimately lead to them facing significant disadvantage as a result and MYTIME Young Carers don't think that's right or fair.

Do what you can. They do what they have to.
