Young carers from across Bristol and South Gloucestershire stepped away from the classroom today for a special Carers Week experience đź’™

Around 120 young carers, along with school staff and young carers leads, visited We The Curious and the SS Great Britain. The trips offered a chance to learn, explore and spend time together in a supportive environment.

For many young carers, opportunities like this are rare. Balancing school with caring responsibilities can impact time, wellbeing and access to activities – so days like this really matter.

A huge thank you to our partners for helping make this possible and creating such a welcoming experience.

At our 13+ young carers group on Saturday, we were joined by our lovely volunteer Lesley, who led a brilliant session on how to make gardens hedgehog‑friendly and protect local wildlife.

Young carers also enjoyed a sunny walk to Kingsgate Park — a chance to get outdoors, relax and spend time together.

💚 A big thank you to Lesley and all our volunteers this — your time, energy and kindness make a real difference.

Have your say – young carers aged 16–25

The Big Future survey is now open and designed to hear directly from young carers about their experiences, plans and what support would help.

If you’re a young carer, or support someone who is, this is a great opportunity to make sure their voice is heard.
