Young Carers

Young Carer Clubs
These run on alternate Thursdays, one for primary and one for secondary school. A chance to take a break, meet other young carers, have something to eat andtake part in some fun activities.

Day trips and residentials
We offer day trips and occasionally there will be the chance to go away for a few days, as in the case of the Roses project.

Raising Awareness
We are always looking for ways to raise the profile and issues of young carers, locally and with other organisations.

Information and Support
We aim to support young carers and their families by providing them with the information they need, advocacy and a listening ear opportunity.

Young Carers Forum
A chance for you to have your say. Get involved in how the clubs, activities and projects are run!!

Fundraising Activities
We look for different ways to raise money for the project throughout the year but we also get young carers involved in some sponsorship.

The Roses Project
The Roses Project was set up in 1990 to help children from different backgrounds with various problems. They work in different parts of Scotland and the range of activities include: abseiling, kayaking, snorkelling, gorge walking and many more. The aim of the project is to help young people have fun and feel better about themselves by:

• taking responsibility for their own actions and decisions;

• working as part of a team;

• facing and overcoming difficult challenges;

• sharing ideas and treating each other with respect
