Young Carers

At Wolverham we are very proud to have achieved the Cheshire Young carers Bronze award in academic year 2024/25. We are now working on improving our offer this year. 

 How to Make a Referral to Cheshire Young Carers

 f you are a family member, or if you know a child or young person at Wolverham Primary and Nursery School who you believe is a young carer and could benefit from their support, making a referral is a straightforward process. We encourage you to reach out so they can assess their needs and offer appropriate assistance. School are proactive in identifying children who take on this role but always welcome your input.

 Here's how to make a referral:

1.           Contact Them Directly: The easiest way to start is to get in touch with their friendly team. You can do this by:

o            Phone: Call them on 0151 356 3176

o            Email: Send an email to [email protected]

o            Website: Visit their website at www.cheshireyoungcarers.org and look for the "Referral" or "Contact Us" section.

2.           Assessment Process: Once they receive your referral, a member of their team will get in touch with school to arrange an education assessment. This is a chance for them to learn more about the young person's unique circumstances and for them to understand how Cheshire Young Carers can help. This assessment is always conducted sensitively and with the young person's well-being at its heart.

Cheshire Young Carers are here to help and support young carers and their families. Please do not hesitate to reach out
