Liberal Democrats A new charity single to support young carers
<[link removed]>
Dear John,
When I sang ‘In the Bleak Midwinter’ in my local church, age 13, neither I nor
my brothers nor my mum fully appreciated how much our lives were all about to
change.
For mum’s cancer was getting worse and I was becoming a young carer. The next
two-and-a-half years before my mum eventually died were extremely tough, but
they were also full of love.
So I am delighted to team up with the Bath Philharmonia’s Young Carers’ Choir
on a brand new, original charity Christmas single in support of Carers Trust
and Bath Philharmonia:

Written by six young carers and former young carers, ‘Love is Enough’ is a
tribute to the caring responsibilities of young carers and the bond they share
with the people they care for. When I heard the opening lyrics, they really hit
home:
“Every second we have left is worth a thousand others.”
It was a joy to spend time with this amazing group of young carers, to see
their incredible talents, energy and love. And our launch yesterday was a
fabulous chance to highlight the challenges facing young carers and the support
available for them – with great coverage on BBC Breakfast, the Today Programme,
Radio 2, ITV News and much more.
I hope you’ll download the song and enjoy it this Christmas, taking some time
to think about this amazing group of people who look after their loved ones
from such an early age.
All the money raised will go to Carers Trust and Bath Philharmonia. Buying and
downloading the song, instead of just streaming it, will help boost us up the
charts and raise more money for these great causes – but of course it is
available on Spotify and all other streaming sites.

This time of year is tough for all carers, particularly young ones. Let's put
them in the spotlight.
Thank you and Merry Christmas!
