YoungSibs is an online support service for brothers and sisters of children and young people with disabilities. It is for siblings who live in the UK and who are under 18. How we support siblings through YoungSibs:.
- Information. The YoungSibs website has information about disability, dealing with feelings and family life, and tips for coping with difficult situations.
- Get help. Siblings can write letters to YoungSibs with problems they want help with. They will receive a personalised response from an experienced member of the YoungSibs team. They can choose to have the responses to their letters published on the YoungSibs letters page.
- YoungSibs chat. This forum is for siblings to talk to other young siblings in the UK. It is moderated by
YoungSibs staff to ensure that the forum is used safely and appropriately.
