making a difference
to young carers across Barnet
For Parents…
We know that it can be tough for parents/carers, so we support the whole family. We work with schools and other professionals to make sure that you are getting all of the support that you need.
Mentoring
It is likely that there is a young carer in your classroom that would benefit from help and support. Download our checklist, and if you recognise a young carer refer them into our service and make a difference
Tuition
Support is available for young carers of all ages in Barnet. From educational support to mentoring and more. We work with young carers and the whole family to help ensure the best possible outcome and the best possible future.
Having some fun
Our activities programme offers young carers off all ages access to a wide range of educational and fun activities throughout the year. From theme parks to the theatre and museums. We have something for all.

Are you a young carer?
How you can support young carers
In many professions and jobs you may come into contact with young carers. You might be a social worker, a GP, a counsellor, pharmacist, shopkeeper or youth worker.
Being a young carer should be, and usually is, a positive experience but it can also be tough. Barnet Young Carers support these amazing children to access the support they need and want, so they have a life of their own, sustain healthier caring roles and achieve their full potential.
Last year we supported hundreds of young carers through their engagement with our core and vital services: activity breaks, mentoring and tuition. Thanks to our think young carer campaign, working together with partners and professionals, we identified young carers who would have otherwise remained hidden, invisible and unsupported.
