YOUNG CARERS BREAKS

Friday 2nd March - Sunday 4th March 2012

We are happy to announce that through our fund raising initiatives and generous donations over the last year we have raised enough money to arrange some short breaks for young carers in Manchester.

Our first break was an activity weekend for young carers aged 14 - 18 years. The break was a residential activity at an Activity Centre in Wensleydale, North Yorkshire. Those who came for the break were able to take part in fun activities like canoeing, climbing, high ropes and abseiling.

If you would like to help us to run more breaks for carers please donate
