Support For Young Carers & Young Adult Carers

SRC believes that young carers have the right to participate in learning and to have access to the information, support and guidance they need to have fair access to their learning and College life. Some students provide care for a family member with a chronic illness or disability, mental health condition (including substance misuse) connected with a need for care. The person receiving care is often a parent but can be a sibling, grandparent, partner, own child or other relative.

If you are a young carer, please either speak to your Personal Tutor or refer to the ‘Support’ section of the SRC website for further guidance. See: www.src.ac.uk/ student-life/student-support/studentwelfare/care-experienced.
