Young Scot have developed new and exciting digital opportunities available for young carers as part of the Young Carers Package, all of which are accessible from home.

Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak they are not currently able to send out physical Rewards packs to young carers.

The new digital reward will now be available to all new 11 year old sign-ups. If you’re aged 11, you won’t be able to sign up through Young Scot Membership for the Young Carers Package, but you will still be able to get your hands on lots of opportunities.

If you’re aged 11, sign up for the Young Scot Young Carers Package online.

If you’re 12 to 18 inclusive, you should sign up via Young Scot Membership.

Who is a young carer? A young carer in Scotland is anyone, aged under the age of 18 who cares long-term, unpaid, for a family member or friend due to illness, disability, a mental health problem or an addiction.
