For many young adult carers, their caring responsibilities and lack of support is stopping them from getting into paid work.
Our inquiry calls for the Milburn review and work on the Youth Guarantee to ensure needs of young adult carers are a priority.

Far too many young adults are having to take on huge caring responsibilities that significantly impact their health and access to opportunities.
This is why reforms to adult social care must improve transitions and support for young adult carers.

A statement from the Mayor and Deputy Mayor of Greater Manchester.
ALT We share the horror and sadness at the attack on Jewish families as they gathered to celebrate Hanukkah in Bondi Beach. In Greater Manchester we know the pain and disbelief that follows such appalling incidents, and our thoughts are with all of those affected. Antisemitism has no place in our society. We are working closely with @gmpolice and community partners to ensure people feel safe and supported during Hanukkah and beyond.
Saul Becker retweeted
The festival of Chanukah would usually be a moment of celebration and light for our Jewish fans and their communities around the world.
After today’s appalling terrorist attack in Sydney, it has become a far more sombre occasion.
Our thoughts are with those immediately affected in Sydney. We stand with them, as we do with the Jewish community in Manchester, following the events at Heaton Park Synagogue earlier this year, and those around the world who are marking Chanukah.
ALT 2025 Chanukah.

Why is an MP aiming for Christmas number one? 🤔🎅🏽
You may not know that Ed Davey was once a young carer! “Love Is Enough”, written and performed by young carers, reflects how he felt looking after his mum 💙
“Love Is Enough” will raise money for young carers.
