We have good news! 🥳 Thanks to #nationallottery players we have been awarded a grant from @TNLComFund to continue developing our Family Support work with #youngcarers and their families. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
We are committed to improving the lives of Young Carers through a whole family approach.

Please could our friends in & around Warwickshire share our Befriender vacancies with their networks. 🙏
We're looking for Befrienders for 2-4 hours a week, paid at Real Living Wage rate across Warwickshire.
Help us to connect more #youngcarers with others & their communities!

🌟 Exciting news! We're thrilled to announce our grant from the #InclusiveCommunities Fund—a £9M initiative inspired by the Commonwealth Games. Focused on community impact we're ready to make a lasting difference in Warwickshire! 💙 #youngcarersinwarwickshire #Befriending

@RishiSunak We have concerns on how this will impact on the attendance of Young Carers. If they can't check in with the person they care for at break, call the pharmacy to see if they can collect meds on the way home or manage their loved one's medical appointments they may just not go.

Thank you to @WarwickRotaryUK for providing funding for #YoungCarers from Warwick District to play Disc Golf today. Weather was kind to us finally & we had an amazing time!
We can't provide any of our respite activities without the amazing support of our donors. Thankyou. 🙏

What a fab way for our Young Carers to get a taste of uni life!Thanks to @BangorUni for welcoming us to your Young Carers Residential Taster. Its so important for YCs to see what it might be like to live away from the person they care for & consider their own aspirations. 🎓
