School awareness raising pack

Awareness-raising is the first step to identification. This pack is full with ideas and links to resources which aim to:

• Raise awareness of young carers among the whole school community - pupils, staff and parents alike
• Reduce stigma and help normalise caring

You will find links to example schools’ young carer webpages, posters, short films, staff resources and training, awareness day resources, books about young carers for all ages, famous young carers, and quotes from young carers.
