Young Carers (Educational and Employment Support) Bill

The Young Carers (Educational and Employment Support) Bill aims to provide dedicated support for young people who care for family members with illness, disability, or other needs. It typically establishes legal duties on schools and employers to identify young carers, assess their needs, and provide reasonable adjustments to help them balance caring responsibilities with education and work. The bill seeks to ensure young carers have access to information about support services and that their caring role doesn't prevent them from reaching their educational and career potential.
