YCF 2024 - The Young Carers Festival

This video not only pays tribute to young carers but also to Jenny Frank MBE, who you'll see toward the end of the film. Jenny co-founded the Young Carers Festival in 2000 but sadly died in 2023. The YCF and the work done to bring awareness of Young Carers to the world, is a tribute and lasting legacy to a fantastic, wonderful and inspirational lady.
A young carer is a person aged 17 or below who provides or intends to provide care to a family member or loved one.
The Young Carers Festival is an annual event celebrating the incredible things the UK's army of hidden carers do. It's a single weekend where many of these courageous and inspirational young people get to be their age without worrying about their adult responsibilities at home.
This year, the theme was "Shine Bright, Speak Out," and the song "Shine" by Emeli Sande was the perfect choice to inspire these amazing, courageous young people.
If you think you might know someone who is a young carer, you can find out more by visiting the Children's Society website. www.childrenssociety.org
All rights of the original artists observed, and huge thanks for their support towards a fantastic cause.
