Think @PaddyMcGuinness got that wrong : there’s not 8,000 young carers in the UK - it’s more like 100,000 -120,000 kids doing an amazing job. #childreninneed
Great care on ward 8 for Isaac tonight @LancsHospitals particularly from Ellie and Billy, unfortunately he’s staying in overnight but their warmth towards a complex little guy was brilliant
@sarajcox Started working with a guy 14 years ago in Wigan, we realised we had the same school year…and then same birthday - Our mums were in neighbouring beds in the maternity unit at Bolton hosp in ‘75 & our birth notices were next to each other in the Bolton evening news!
@SuperLeague@SalfordDevils Really good listen this episode, knew very little about Tim (I’m not a Salford fan) but what an honest and self-aware guy he is. His breakdown story is powerful, any bloke should listen and reflect.
It’s carers week #CarersWeek2023#CarersWeek#carers. My twins are 12, and Ethan loves nothing more than making Isaac laugh. Ethan doesn’t see himself as a young carer, but having support that is accessible to him when hr might want support is crucial.
