'I cared for my dad as a teen - we need support'

A teenager who spent hours every day looking after his dad has called for more awareness and support for young carers, as he prepares to sit his GCSE exams.

Beckett, from Leicestershire, lost his dad Nick in February from a suspected progressive supranuclear palsy, a rare neurological condition which presents similar symptoms to Parkinson's.

The 16-year-old said support sessions for young carers at his school made a "world of difference", but The Children's Society has warned support is variable by area.

Beckett and his mum Tracey spoke to BBC Leicester's Ady Dayman.
