This learning event will bring together a broad range of multi-agency professionals across Hampshire, Wiltshire and wider, working with Military and Armed Forces Families and will provide training and networking around identifying, referring and supporting young carers in this, often, hidden group. This event will also provide attendees with the opportunity to better understand the barriers and challenges faced by young carers in Armed Forces Families, the additional vulnerabilities associated with a young carer remaining ‘hidden’, and how professionals can develop their practice in order to better support young carers.
This event is aimed at multi-agency professionals who may be working with young carers and families in Armed Forces Families.
