About Us

What We Offer

We offer support to children and young people aged 8-25 who live in Sheffield are young carers. Being a young carer means they provide care for one or more family members who have disabilities, long-term physical illnesses, and/or mental health problems. They may be providing physical, personal, financial and/or emotional care.

We also offer support to children and young people aged 8-25 who live in Sheffield and are affected by drug and alcohol issues in their family (now or in the past).

We provide support through one-to-one work, group support, trips, holidays, and support with education, employment, and training.

We can work with young carers’ families, with the aim of reducing the caring that the young person is taking on and improving life for the whole family.

We also work with organisations across the city to make sure that additional support is available to young carers and young people affected by familial substance misuse.
