From: Study progress, recreational activities, and loneliness in young adult carers: a national student survey

Some people provide help or support to people who are physically or mentally ill, disabled or misusing drugs or alcohol. This could be a parent, brother, sister, another relative or someone else. Is there anyone like this who you have to look after on an ongoing basis?

 

□ Yes, someone I live with

 

□ Yes, someone I do not live with

 

□ No

 

If Yes:
