That this House notes the cross-party welcome given to members of the Young Carers' Forum at the All-Party Parliament Carers' Group; congratulates the Forum on its work on behalf of young carers, in particular its involvement in the consultation events for the New Deal for Carers; and, as part of this year's Carers' Rights Day, endorses their call for care services for the whole family, the training of professionals who deal with young carers and ensuring that young carers have a chance of a normal childhood.
