Story

Berkeley's Cobham and IT offices are undertaking the 10/10 challenge in October. 10 km each day for 10 days.  This can be done as individuals or as teams.  The aim is to get 10 teams across the offices undertaking the challenge.  

The challenge is to support the Berkeley Foundation 10 year anniversary and we will be supporting our local charity Surrey Young Carers.  There are 115,000 unpaid carers in Surrey looking after someone who couldn't manage without them. Caring can be extremely isolating and can take its toll - it can affect all aspects of life. But we're here to support by phone, through face-to-face meetings, support groups and workshops. We help with benefits advice, advocacy, give practical help and provide a wealth of information and free events."I had been signposted to so many dead ends, Action for Carers and Surrey Young Carers have been the first to offer real help and understanding."

About the charity

Surrey Young Carers is a service of Action for Carers Surrey. We support young people under 18 who care emotionally or physically for an adult or sibling with a long term illness, disability or drug and alcohol misuse. We offer advocacy, funding and a range of activities and breaks to young carers.
