As part of our Young Carer project, we have invested in one of these books for every one of our Carers and will be using it as a template to talk about how they feel being a Carer themselves. #supportingfamilyirl #teamroscommon

@GeorginaKilcoy3 @Frcboyle @SouthRosFRC @vitahouseros1 @castlereaCFRC @Ballaghaderree1 @RoscommonLP I totally agree and also that whatever you do or don't study at college, or even if you don't go to college doesn't mean you cannot change your mind, careers are constantly evolving.

[Roscommon Young Carers Project (YCP) @RoscommonYoung]

Students will have got their Leaving Cert Results by now - 2020 will be the year you learnt things don't always go as planned-that you can get through it.

Whatever happens next, always remember plans evolve, plans can be changed - that's the excitement of life! #supportingfamily

[Roscommon Young Carers Project (YCP) @RoscommonYoung]

Lots of support out there for anyone struggling.

[spunout.ie @spunout]

For anyone with questions about their #LeavingCert results, the CAO process or routes into work or training, we are running a livechat helpdesk today from 12-9pm. Ask your question at https://t.co/PLqUhs5818

@nbrez We recently did an art camp for our Young Carers - the camp was a great success and very therapeutic. The creative industry has so much to offer, to so many people on so many levels. We are now expanding our program to inc' music & writing (you're welcome to join us anytime).

The Covid Pandemic does reduce the trauma being suffered by rape survivors - if this has impacted please do not hesitate to reach out for help.

The smallest thing can make a big difference. As we are wearing masks, smiles are harder to see, but we can still smile with our eyes, give a nod of the head or a quick howaya.
