About this booklet
This guide is about looking after someone who has cancer. It is for young people under the age of 18. We have put it together with the help of other young carers.
The guide explains what it means to be a young carer, where you can get help and support, how to look after yourself and how to cope with practical, emotional and financial issues.
How we can help
If you have cancer, you may be able to get a Macmillan Grant to help with the extra costs of cancer. Find out who can apply and how to access our grants.
There are lots of benefits that could help you after a cancer diagnosis, but the system can be confusing. Our Welfare Rights Advisors are here to help.
