What Is Young Adult Carers Bucks?

Young Adult Carers Bucks is the young adult carers service for Carers Bucks, and supports young adults aged 17-25 who live in Buckinghamshire and have a caring role.

The caring role can effect young adults in a multitude of ways. We have a brilliant team of dedicated support workers who tailor their approach to suit the needs of the person they are supporting and tackle anything that rises around their caring role.

Our Aim

We aim to support young adult carers as they transition into adulthood and independence whilst continuing to provide unpaid care for a family member at home.

The aim of our service is to provide the right support for young adult carers based on their individual needs. We do this through:

  • providing information and advice
  • signposting to other organisations
  • the opportunity to other young adult carers, who may share similar experiences to you, through targeted support groups, social activities and life skills programmes
