Make A Referral

All young carers are provided with a Young Carers Assessment to determine their caring responsibilities and the impact of caring.

TEN and Humankind South Tyneside Young Carers services support young people and their families to reduce the impact of caring and ensure that young people have access to the same opportunities as their peers and can achieve their full potential.
