🎃Our October Half-Term Activity Books are now available for primary and secondary-aged young carers in both English and Welsh! 🎃

Copies have been distributed to schools participating in the Young Carers in Schools Programme. If your school hasn't received a copy, or isn't currently involved in the programme, please get in touch with: [email protected]

📸 Our team has been busy! 📸

From our fantastic trip to Glastonbury, to supporting carers through our Pop-Up Hubs, enjoying activities and fun at the Hub, and delivering our Young Carers in Schools Programme, it's been a busy few weeks! 💙

We have also been visiting schools across Gwent, raising awareness of young carers and recognising schools for their commitment to identifying and supporting young carers through the programme. 🌟

Here's a selection of photos showcasing some of the great things we've been up to with carers and young carers across our communities.

Don't forget to keep an eye out for activities, events, and support happening in your local area. There's always something going on!

Please help us by liking, commenting, and sharing this post so we can spread the word across Gwent and ensure that all unpaid carers know that support is available and that they don't have to face their caring role alone.
