The Hart and Rushmoor Young Carers project is run by Hart Voluntary Action in association with local Rushmoor youth charity Creating Futures.
Who we support:
We support children and young people living in Hart and Rushmoor aged 10-18, who have significant caring responsibilities for a close family member who has a short/long term medical condition, illness or disability. If you know of a child who is aged 5-9 who is a young carer, do contact us, as we are aiming to develop support for this age group as well in the future |
Who do this by:
Providing evening respite clubs which offer young carers time out from their caring role. Providing opportunities to spend time with friends and make new ones. Running a programme of club activities decided on by the young people. Offering a listening ear if needed. Working alongside other professionals to ensure that young carers are receiving all the support they need.
