Residential season is well underway 👏

👋 Our Year 6 children spent last week on their residential at Fairthorne Manor, Southampton. They had an absolutely fabulous time trying out a range of adventure activities and enjoying spending time together. Lots of laughter and memories were made! Thank you to our staff for looking after the children and joining in the fun! And thank you to the staff at Fairthorne. I am sure our parents and carers heard lots of stories from the children over the weekend, and had a lot of washing to do! 🫣😁

🎉 The countdown is ON! The UK's largest Young Carers Festival is coming to Fairthorne Manor this June!

From 26th–28th June 2026, we'll be welcoming 1,000 Young Carers from across the country to Botley, Southampton for a weekend full of adventure, friendship, live entertainment, workshops, music and so much more.

Across the UK, nearly 800,000 children and young people carry caring responsibilities for a family member affected by illness, disability, mental health challenges or addiction — often juggling this alongside school and everyday life.

This weekend is for them. A chance to step away from daily pressures, have fun, make memories, and feel truly valued.

"Whilst the festival lasts only one weekend, the impact it has on many young people can last much longer." — Josh Towers, Youth Services Director

If you feel like you have something to give to your community, or volunteering might be for you, we'd love to hear from you. Find out more and get involved 👉 https://ymca-fg.org/young-carers-festival/
