More than 380,000 of Australia’s carers are young carers aged under 26, with about 150,000 aged under 18. Western Sydney Community Forum's Catherine Madziva with Jenny and Mary from Little Dreamers explore what this means for young people who provide care while also juggling important activities such as attending school, university, or college and how teachers, coaches, or youth workers can connect young people with the right supports.
