Our school works with SIBS, a charity supporting children and young people who have a brother or sister with a disability, serious illness, or mental health condition. SIBS offers practical help, advice, and reassurance to make young carers feel less alone.

Key resources include:

- "Young and Caring – Accessing Support" which helps young people get the practical and emotional support they need, and think about who else can help them. Everyone’s situation is different, so this workbook is just one of several tools available.

- "Young and Caring for Someone with a Mental Illness" is designed for those caring for someone with a mental health condition, but many tips are useful for any young carer.

There’s also extra guidance via Sense for young carers and siblings. To find out more, click here:  https://www.sense.org.uk/our-services/support-for-children/support-for-young-carers-and-siblings/

We’re proud to have received the Barnardo’s Liverpool Schools Young Carers Award and the Young Carers in Schools Award from the Carers Trust, recognising our commitment to supporting young carers.
