Good morning. It is a cold and frosty start to the day, but for many it will be dry with sunshine, turning hazier through the day, but north and West Scotland will have some showers. Thank you, carol. Good morning. First, our main story. The childrens commissioner for england says the vast majority of young carers receive no support from local authority social services. Anne longfield says four out of five are going under the radar. The local Government Association said funding cuts meant councils were being forced to make difficult decisions. Helena lee reports. This is daniel, one of thousands of young carers in england. Hes ten and lives with his mum, florella, who has a brain tumour. Daniel is her main carer at home. When hes not at school, he helps around the house, but he constantly worries about his mum when he isnt there. I started becoming more responsible and i started doing the cleaning. Started doing cooking better. I started paying more attention to what my mum was doing.
