Crossroads Young Carers Cowal & Bute offers regular lunch time drop ins to schools in Bute and Cowal. We are happy to come along to school
events and parents evenings to support young carers and raise awareness of young carers.
We have provided class inputs into schools throughout Bute and Cowal and would be happy undertake this for Bute and Cowal schools as
requested.
Both Dunoon Grammar School & Rothesay Academy have members of school staff who are identified as Young Carers Champions, young
people can approach Young Carers Champions during the school day if they need support or a chat.
In addition, Crossroad Young Carers Cowal & Bute, can provide Young Carers in S1 and above with a Young Carers Education Card, which may
help a young carer during the school day, should they be late to school because of their caring role, been unable to complete homework due to
their caring role or are feeling worried about their cared for person and need to chat.
If you would like further information regarding the Education Card please get in touch.
To make a referral, please ensure you have discussed this with the young carer and family. A referral form is located on the website to download
and should be returned to mags@cyccb.org.uk
