@UtopiaComputers Listen, I'm trying to mislead the boss so I can warrant this beaut sitting on my desk. If I play down it's capabilities they might let me! Imagine the lunch time gaming sessions!

East Ayrshire Carers Centre will visit Kilmarnock campus on Thursday 23 November. Look out for their stall located in the foyer between 12-2pm.

They can advise student carers about services and initiatives available to them.

Very successful AGM today. Nice to hear about what we’ve achieved this year and how much we’ve grown. Always nice to hear how appreciated we are by the board and our members! 😊

We had Karen from Flowers By Karen pop along to our Tuesday Support group to provide an autumnal wreath making session. Carers enjoyed watching her making the wreaths and even had a go themselves #flowers #autumn #autumnal #wreaths

Day 2 of some of our Young Carers having an excellent time canoeing down the river Dee. Not one of us got wet! Weather was perfect, so perfect I got burnt 😂

Shannon's 1 of our local delivery partners. Her hard work paid off as she received donations from a business who haven’t been able to donate since 2019! https://t.co/E8KqHeKfWI #SocialTourism #EastAyrshire #ScottishTourism #UnpaidCarers #ShortBreaks @CareBreaks @EACarers

In Ayr Hospital today with my colleague and Hospital Discharge Carer Link Worker @johnscaEACC raising awareness of Carers and the incredible support they provide to their loved ones.

I’ve had the privilege of taking part in @Columba1400 leadership academies as a young person and also as a staff member supporting young carers. They helped me to realise I wasn’t only just the kid who looked after his Dad but that I had my own aspirations in life. @EACarers

[Columba 1400 @Columba1400]

Today is #YoungCarersActionDay.

We recognise the importance of supporting young carers and are proud of the difference our values-based academies for young carers make.

...but the Centre was able to provide me and many other young people with a childhood they would have never had. Today isn't about me, but about those young people that selflessly give up their childhood to support a loved one today! #YoungCarersActionDay

I'm almost 30 and have worked for @EACarers for what will be 10 years in July. Two very big milestones! Not only have I worked for the Carers Centre but I have also accessed their services as a Young Carer. I remember vividly having to support my father with his mental health...

[Adam Smith EACC @AS_EACarers]

...after the death of my brother due to alcohol misuse. I have no idea how I would have been able to cope if not for the services I was able to access. Many young people including myself back then had or have to give up their childhood to provide the support they do...

You may have heard the Government’s announcement in regard to PPE for unpaid carers. Local Hubs will distribute PPE to the whole social care sector as well as other social care providers and unpaid carers. For further information check out our website ->https://t.co/C9R8Ku0OBq

Thanks to @TNLComFundScot for providing extra funding to help us support our community during this difficult time. We’re staying connected with young carers struggling to cope with lockdown, their mental health and fears around health implications on family members.

10 years ago I lived in a jungle with tribesmen! I am so grateful to have had a chance to experience this once in a lifetime opportunity. @EACarers, where dreams are made!��️

After noticing that Ken slept with a photo of his late wife every night, one of the carers at Thistleton Lodge presented him with this incredible gift...
