A big welcome to our new Young Carer Champion!
Amy Whant is a Social Work Practice Consultant at the Newark Family Support and Safeguarding Team and has volunteered to be a Young Carers Champion for her team, after attending our NCA Young Carer Awareness online training.
Young Carer Champions are designated staff members who:
- Provide support for Young Carers
- Act as a first point of contact
- Raise awareness among other staff
- Connect Young Carers and their families to essential external services and resources
These champions help ensure Young Carers receive the support they need.
