YOUNG carers in Hillingdon had the opportunity in half-term to take part in an arts project run by the charity, Create.
The project is designed to give them creative and social time away from their caring responsibilities.
The young people, aged 11-13, devised original songs inspired by their ideas and interests.
There are at least 2,450 young carers in Hillingdon, more than 700 of whom are supported by Hillingdon Carers group.
School holidays can be a difficult time for them without school’s daily routine. Increased time at home equates to an increase in time caring for a relative.
