Young Carers and Sibling Support

SIBS

Aims to enhance the lives of siblings of disabled children and adults by providing them with information and support.

YoungSibs is for children and young people who have a brother or sister who is disabled, has special educational needs or a serious long-term condition. It is for siblings in the UK aged 6 to 17.


Carers Support Service

Many carers do not see themselves as such because they see themselves as a parent, spouse or partner, son or daughter, relative, friend or neighbour. 1 in 10 of the population are carers. As a result carers often miss out on services, support, advice and benefits which may be available. Carers Support can help carers from all communities across West Sussex by providing practical information and emotional support.
