Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I'm raising funds for Sheffield Young Carers:
Young carers can often find life tiring, worrying and lonely. Being a carer can affect a young person in many ways – including social isolation, bullying, difficulties with school attendance and achievement, and physical and mental ill health themselves.
We aim to reduce the impacts of their caring by building young carers' confidence and resilience and improving their health and well-being.
We do this through:
one-to-one support
group support
trips
holidays
support with education, employment, training and transition
using a whole family approach to promote positive, long-term changes for everyone at home.
"We believe it’s the right of every young carer to be recognised in their role and have the same opportunities and life chances as other children and young people of a similar age.'
For more information on their work to help support young carers, as well as young people affected by drug and alcohol problems in their family
