Jonny - my subject is young carers

back

johhnyHareeeeeeeet I'm Jonny, im currently studying a level 3 qualification in motor vehicle maintenance and also volunteering at Pallion Action Group (PAG).I’m 18 years of age and live at home with my parents and brother, I enjoy going to the gym, playing football, boxing and going out with mates having a laugh etc.

I chose the subject of young carers because it has an affect on my lifestyle with me having a brother who suffers from autism and a mother who has agoraphobia, I didn’t realise I could be classed as a young carer until I had a meeting with Dave from the Carers Centre in Toward Road, Sunderland who gave me a lot of advice and things such as contacts, places to go for help etc.
