Did you know on November the 19th it is Carer’s Rights Day?

On this day we want to support and recognise our Young Carers.

Did you know that some children help care for someone at home who has an illness, disability or mental health difficulty? These children are known as Young Carers. Many children may not even realise they are Young Carer.

On Carer's Rights Day we want to recognise those children for the kindness and responsibility they show, as we also understand that caring for someone can sometimes be worrying or challenging.

We are committed to ensuring that every young carer feels listened to, valued and supported, both in school and beyond. At school we hold dedicated Young Carer groups and drop in sessions as well as helping families to find additional support or discuss the services offered by Centre 33 Peterborough.

If you think your child may be a young carer, we would love to hear from you. Please reach out to our Young Carers Champion, Mrs Neacy or drop her an e-mail lneacy@stm.act-academytrust.org

There is no judgement, just a friendly listening ear.
