We have a vacancy in our Young Carers Team
Are you passionate about working with young people and would like to learn about young carers and how we support them? Get in touch!
We work with young carers to let them know they are not alone and see what support we can offer. Activities and events are organised for them to get a break from their caring role and meet other young carers. We provide training to other professionals about how they can identify and support young carers. It is a varied role where full training is provided, we ask that you are enthusiastic about working with young people and having quite good IT skills.
As a carer led organisation Carers in Hertfordshire believes that the voice of the carer is central to everything we do. You will be able to ensure young carers voices are heard at every level. You will contribute to this through supporting the work of our young carers council, encouraging feedback on support as well as regular activities.
