Y Sort it Young Carers Service

Y sort it aims to support young carers in their caring role so they are able to live a happy and fulfilled life alongside caring. We aim to improve the lives and wellbeing of young carers by raising awareness, offering emotional and practical support and by giving each young person the opportunity to take a break from their caring role and have fun in a friendly, supportive environment where they can be themselves. A young carer is someone under the age of 18 who helps to look after a relative who requires some degree of care due to illness, disability, mental health issues or an alcohol or drug problem. Being a young carer can be a struggle and stressful, with young carers feeling alone and isolated at times. We offer 8- 18 year olds the following support.
  • 1-2-1 Support
  • Group work
  • Respite & Short Break Opportunities
  • West Dunbartonshire Leisure Cards
  • Funding for respite
