Story
Cheshire Young Carers is a cause that is very close to my heart. They have been there through some of the hardest things that I have been through such as the death of my Grandma, my Mums second Cancer diagnosis and when my mental health struggled for a period of time. They supported me when I dropped out of College and ensured that when I wanted to get a job, that I was well prepared for how to go through the application process.
Due to this I am passionate about giving back to this amazing charity so that they can support other children who may need the same support that they provided for me.
"At Cheshire Young Carers, we pride ourselves on delivering respite to young carers – giving a special group of young people a break from their often daily stresses and responsibilities. Children as young as 6 have caring roles, and their home environment can have a significant impact upon their life chances. That’s where Cheshire Young Carers comes in. We deliver support through group activities, day trips, residential breaks, and support education staff to help to identify, support and improve the educational outcomes for young carers."
Cheshire Young Carers provides opportunities that many of the children that they support may not normally get to experience. This includes trips to amusement parks, to local places that children may not get to visit due to their families needs and even Disneyland Paris !
