Care Is...
2023 - Present
This project is a celebration of young carers with all their wild dreams and uncertain futures. A celebration of their individuality, their voices, and what they have to say.
We worked collaboratively with a diverse group of young carers from Brent aged 8-16 to create a highly visible and widely distributed print campaign responding to needs and interests of the group.
At the heart of the project is a desire to make space in which young carers can be seen, and can truly be heard: as their full selves, in anger and sadness and fear and despair as well as in joy and laughter and love and hope.
