Really enjoyed the @iycc2024 International Young Carers Conference. Interesting research and practice, new ideas but ongoing challenges. Plus plenty of young carer voices to make it real.
What a truly incredibly powerful and fitting way to finish the @iycc2024 with a message from the young carers and young adult carers to the world. All put together by them in just 2 days (See comment for part 2) #Awareness#Support#Choice
"Caring for someone is a fantastic thing, up to a point. We need help before we reach that point!" Powerful words from Inge, #youngcarers from the Netherland. Great way to start the conference #iycc2024
