Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have been working for Action For Family Carers for just over 1 year and feel so fortunate to be involved in supporting some amazing young children through some difficult times in their lives.

As a charity, we organise weekly clubs, giving children who are young carers an opportunity to have a little respite and spend some time with children of their own age and in similar situations as themselves. The positive affect these clubs have on these young carers is important to aid them in their future development and wellbeing.

I personally have had an extreme fear of flying for over 20 years and have resorted to Hypnotherapy and taking Valium to get me through previous flights. This challenge for me is one of the most extreme I could think of, but it also gives an insight into how important this charity is to me and how much I want to push myself to make a difference to these exceptional young carers.
