Young Carers

In this week's Family Focus we look at an issue important to many people

Just a week to go but no doubt children are counting the hours until school ends and the fun begins. But for over eight thousand young carers in Northern Ireland Christmas can be particularly difficult when they're looking after sick or disabled members of their families.

Sarah Travers reports for this week's Family Focus.

Sarah spoke to Claire Davison, Young Carers Project Officer for Crossroads.
