I am a young carer. Where can I get support?

Question:
I am a young carer. Where can I get support?
Answer:

If you live in Staffordshire or care for someone who lives in Staffordshire there is support available to you. 

You can contact the County Council for information, advice and support related to your caring role.  Young Carers have their own dedicated telephone number should they wish to speak to a Young Carers Assessor.  Your Young Carers Assessor will be able to offer you practical advice, guidance and signposting to other relevant services, as well as working with you to develop a support plan and completing a statutory carers assessment. 

Young Carers: 01785 278 444

General Enquiries: firstcontactcarers@staffordshire.gov.uk

In addition there is support for you at the Staffordshire Together for Carers Service. They support carers by providing tailored advice, training and information on a whole range of topics and situations.
