Just a quick one..

My Brother spends time with a group of other young carers & they take him out to do activities and just generally spend time with one another for a break.

He's become a little star now and everybody wants to interview him!

This is the newspaper article from The Nottingham Post.

You and your brother are doing a great job of raising awareness of PSP. The Young Carers project sounds really good too.Doesn't matter what your age, there really isn't enough support for carers.

Hi Hannah.

I read on your profile that you'd been going to counselling - i wonder if you could just give me some hints on what to expect..I'm down to see someone pretty soon and am a bit apprehensive about what to expect or how i might come across...I've had such an up and down summer trying to settle back here around mum and dad etc. feel like i just wouldn't know where to start trying to explain to someone new how i felt about it all. they might even think i've lost the plot...?! just miss my dad as once he was, as you can obviously relate to....

sorry to bother you. any info gladly received!
