Under 12 Mental Wellbeing Resources and Information

Are you caring for someone at home?

Young Carers may take on emotional and/or hands on caring responsibilities that are usually done by an adult. 

East Lothian Council want to ensure that all our Young Carers have the same opportunities as other children and young people their age. We therefore need to know who our Young Carers are in order that we have the most appropriate services in place to meet their needs. It you know a Young Carer or are a Young Carer please complete our Initial Questionnaire on Viewpoint. Some-one from the Young Service will then contact you to tell you more about what we are doing to support Young Carers in your local area.

If you know someone that is a young carer or you think you are a young carer, fill in our young carers screening questionnaire.
