The Carers Centre is a growing and forward-thinking organisation with ambition to support an increasing number of children, young people and adults who provide unpaid care for a family member or friend due to disability, illness, addiction, or frailty.
With the Carers (Scotland) Act fully embedded into practice and the incorporation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child into Scots Law imminent, supporting the voices of young carers has never been so important.
This role will facilitate meaningful young carer and young adult carer participation – from involvement through the provision of information and opportunities to participate in consultations, to direct engagement in shaping the outcome of services to support young carers.
Closing date for applications is 22nd July 2024. Interviews are expected to be held w/c 5th August 2024.
