Our team provide statutory Young Carer Assessments on behalf of Gateshead Council. The Assessment isn’t an exam or about how good the young carer is at supporting the person they care for. It’s about getting the right support for them so that they have the same chances as other people their age. A Young Carer’s Assessment enables us to determine what help a young carer needs and what support we can offer.

To receive a Young Carer’s Assessment, a young carer must register with the Young Carers’ Service first.
