As a carer, you’ll often put the needs of the person you care for before your own needs. It’s OK to look after yourself too.

If you are a student at school, university or other training centre, you may be able to get support to help you to combine studying and caring.

Many students also care for someone and this can be hard. The time and energy that caring takes can interfere with your study. This is true for all students, whether you are a young high school student, an older university student or a returning continuing education student.
