Tamia, 12

I care for: my mum

Hi, I’m Tamia.

I like to draw, paint, design and play basketball. In general, I love being outdoors and being active. I’m part of my local basketball team, but sadly we’ve had to stop playing because of the pandemic restrictions.

In my spare time, I love listening to music and playing Just Dance, as well as practicing doing makeup and hair. I would describe my personality as super funny! I’m also very creative, sensitive and I’m down to earth and easy to talk to.

I have a few dream careers – but haven’t quite decided yet. My dream jobs are to be either a movie producer, actress, fashion designer or a graphic designer.

I’m a Young Carer for my mum, who has lots of serious illnesses and disabilities. Small tasks for her can become life-threatening due to her heart condition and she is also partially blind.
