For those caring for a child or young person with SEND aged 0-17
Are you a carer?
Many people don’t see themselves as carers. You might see the emotional and practical support that you provide as part of being a parent. No matter how you see yourself, you are a carer if you provide or arrange care for someone who struggles to cope without your support, for more than 35 hours per week. If you are a carer, you could be entitled to help and support that makes your life easier.
