Support for carers over 18

When you are about to turn 18, you have the right to have a transition assessment. Like a young carers assessment, this is a chance for you to talk about your needs as carer and possible ways in which you can receive support.

If you are receiving support from our young carer’s project, your young carer’s worker will explain to you how you get a transition assessment.

If you do not get support from our young carer’s worker then you should contact the Preparing for Adulthood Team who are part of our Adult Social Care service on 0118 974 6832.
