Imago young carers awareness training
We are pleased to offer this free training session during Carers Week where we will discuss and explore:
- the definition of a young carer
- lived experience and impact of being a young carer
- young carer rights and legislation
- those who are considered 'hidden' and 'hard to reach'
- our service overview
- Q&A time
Plus supportive resources and materials that you can share to engage with young people and families about our support service.
Who is the training for?
The training is open to all schools/professionals working across our service areas.
Whether you work directly with children and/or families in a school setting, youth and faith groups, social care, out in the community or within a GP surgery, Young Carers are everyone's business and play a vital role in supporting a family member.
The training strives to ensure all are mindful in identifying, acknowledging and supporting young carers and their families in order to access the same opportunities as their peers.
Help us raise awareness of these incredible young people!
