📣📣Today marks Young Carers Action Day 2026 📣📣.
Young Carers Action Day is national day of recognition for all the outstanding young carers in our communities and a call to action to help identify those young carers who are unseen or overlooked.

Stockton-on-Tees’ young carers shedding a little light on their lives & demonstrating the importance of taking a break.
Today is YOUNG CARERS ACTION DAY.
The theme for this year is ‘Give Me A Break’ & some of the young carers we support have been involved in making this video which gives you a sneaky peak into their lives & demonstrates why breaks are so important.

"Young carers are being forced to become a hidden national health service. They are filling the gaps of our NHS." World-leading academic @profsaulbecker talks to Tonight about the children whose families could not cope without them.
He says that some of Britain’s most vulnerable children are doing up to 50 hours a week and that more must be done to help them. Don't miss ITV’s ‘Young Carers: A Hidden Crisis’ at 20:30pm on @ITV @ITVX

Hundreds of thousands of children are young carers looking after their loved ones.
@EdwardJDavey spoke to @ITVTonight about his experience as a young carer and our fight to get today’s young carers the support they deserve.
Tune in at 8:30pm on ITV1.

This evening's @ITVTonight programme with @ronkephillips was about young carers. It revealed some initial findings from our inquiry - the first of its kind. Our inquiry has found how some young carers are waiting over 10 years to be identified and a postcode lottery of support.

@profsaulbecker - Young carers are the "hidden health service - they are filling the gaps - forcing children because of lack of funding in other parts of welfare system"

Great to see the booklet all done & ready to roll out!! Partnership work at its very best!!!
On this world mental health day, we know that young carers can struggle with their own mental health. A group of young carers we worked with last year have created a booklet for other young carers about their mental health. drive.google.com/file/d/13kF…
