Good practice carers and young carers stories: caring together and getting it right for young carers: the carers and young carers strategy for Scotland 2010-2015

This compendium of good practice and carers and young carers stories accompanies Caring Together and Getting it Right for Young Carers. Earlier in the year the Scottish Government invited local authorities, Health Boards, the Third Sector and other organisations in Scotland to submit examples of good practice about support for carers and young carers. They also invited personal ‘stories’ from carers and young carers. Many examples and stories were received and these form the subject of this compendium produced by the Scottish Government and the Convention of Scottish Local Authorities (COSLA). The compendium contains 45 examples of good practice and 24 carers’ and young carers’ stories. Available online only.
