I’ve only been a young carer for a year and a half, but the last year and half has changed my life completly. It seemed my life changed over night, from being able to go out with my friends most days to not being to go out because I would have to go to my nans to make her dinner, tiding up etc.

People ask me ’ If you had the chance not to be a young carer would you’, and every reply is No because its a fab bond between me and my nan and I wouldnt change it for the world. I also cook dinner for my cousin who is blind. I personally my self do find it hard with cooking food because me and food dont get on all the times, but I do it."
