We had a lovely time at #YoungCarersClub this week, making positive affirmation jars with @strongyoungminds. Now whenever our #YoungCarers need a boost they can open the jar and read something good about themselves.

Wow. Lots of powerful messages being shared last night as our #YoungCarers and #YoungAdultCarers met with John Burgess, Senior Commissioning Officer for @hfdscouncil. Their presentation about their lives as carers was impactful and moving, and was made possible by the fantastic Toni Cook who is gifted at helping young people to express themselves. Thank you to everyone for such a wonderful culmination of our #iWill project

I hope all of our #YoungCarers have had a great half-term! There's no face-to-face club next week, it's Zoom only - I'll be sending out the link to join nearer the time. The next in-person club will be 2 weeks later, on Wednesday 22nd November. Look forward to seeing you soon! :)

Our #YoungCarers and #YoungAdultCarers got togeth

Our #YoungCarers and #YoungAdultCarers got together yesterday for a workshop, preparing their presentation for decision makers, as part of the #iWill project. Some very powerful messages came out of this session, largely due to the engagement and enthusiasm generated by Creative Consultant and Practitioner, Toni Cook.

Wow! Look at this amazing rose in our #YoungCarers colours. It was given to us by one of our amazing young people to show how much they appreciate the support Young Carer groups provide. Thank you so much!

IMPORTANT - WE NEED YOU! There's no club next week

IMPORTANT - WE NEED YOU!
There's no club next week but we are having a special session at Jubilee Hall on Wednesday 1st November from 3-5pm with Toni Cook for those #YoungCarers and #YoungAdultCarers who are taking part in our #iWill youth social action project. The project's aim is to make sure the people who decide where the funding goes and what support Carers are given hear directly from the people it affects. Next Wednesday's session will focus on getting everyone ready for 21st November when we will be talking to decision-makers from Herefordshire Council. We'd really appreciate it if any of our young people could commit to this, it could really make a difference.

Join us this half-term for a special #iWill sessio

We have a wonderful opportunity for some of our Young and #YoungAdultCarers to see the dress rehearsal of this great new play before it goes on tour. It's a show all about #YoungCarers whose parents have a mental illness. It's got an important message at its heart, but it's also fun. To book your place just send us a message. Here's what it's about:

MY MAD MUM

Everyone knows Andy and everyone knows his mum, or at least they think they do…People are always calling her names and whispering about her behind his back. When the new girl, Harper, arrives at Andy’s school, they strike up a special friendship. But is Harper hiding something, and how long will it be before their home lives collide?

My Mad Mum is a free play (recommended age 9+), set to a soundtrack of modern music. It explores what it means to be a young person with a parent with a mental illness and how to support others in the same situation.

Our #YoungCarers have enjoyed many clubs in the past with the talented Toni Cook - so much so that when we asked them what activities they wanted in the future, her name came up loud and clear as you can see! The good news is she's coming back with some really fun sessions to help our Young and #YoungAdultCarers express their points of views, as part of the #iWill project. The first session will be at our YAC and older YCs meeting, next Tuesday 12th at 6pm. See you there :)
