About this service
We issue small grants to encourage young carers (5-18) to take part in physical activity to improve physical health and emotional wellbeing.
I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your help in finding swimming lessons for my daughter. She has made wonderful progress, her confidence has really grown, and she’s so much happier now that she’s part of a community and an activity she enjoys.
More Information
We can provide up to £150 for young carers to use on a physical activity outside of the home. Examples of activities already funded include ballet classes, swimming lessons, horse riding and private football coaching. Apply today – drop us an email or complete the service referral form.
