Thirza Walton

Thirza Walton

Name: Thirza Walton
Age: 19
Year of the Fix: 2017
Location: Preston, Lancashire
Campaign: To help teachers to better understand life for young carers

I’ve been looking after my mum since I was six. Getting her out of bed and ready for the day, cooking meals, cleaning the house. When she’s having a bad day I help to bathe her.

 

I don’t mind at all but what does make me cross is the way some teachers have treated me in the past.

 

They didn’t believe I was actually a carer, in my opinion. They thought I was making it up because I didn’t want to do my homework. They’d call me a liar in front of the whole class.

 

Fixers has helped me to make a short film contrasting the life of a young carer with that of a normal teenager.

 

I hope teachers will see it and maybe realise they’ve got someone like me in their class – and go and talk to them. That would be great. 

The following Fixers helped me with this Fix: 

 

Catherine Paterson 

Sam Briggs

Millie Breedon

Thomas Costello

Abigael Wright

Lewis Woods, Brenda Walton and Jenny Ashcroft from Barnardo's supported me with this Fix. 

 

I would also like to thank Comic Relief for supporting me with this fix.
