The aim of this App is to identify young carers in Renfrewshire who are not receiving support.  Please listen to your carers describing their experiences and the support they need.

If you know of young carers please show them some of these videos and encourage them to complete the short questionnaire in the Getting Help section.  They will then be contacted to discuss what help could benefit them.
