How children and young people
should feel
"Young carers have the equivalent of a
full-time job at home."
"I want to feel safer in school and have equal
gender rules with uniform and sports."
"We just want security and ways to be
ourselves without being scared of how it
makes us look."
"My responsibilities as a young carer at
home are understood"
"I feel safe and that I can be myself"
"I feel there are equal gender rules with
uniform and sports"
