Young Carers Bucks
Young Carers Bucks is part of Carers Bucks and supports children and young people aged 6-18 years old who care for a family member who has a:
- physical or mental illness
- disability
- drug or alcohol related misuse
The cared for person may be a parent, sibling or another relative living in the same household. The child or young person does not necessarily have to be providing ‘hands on’ care to be recognised as a young carer. Even if there are services in place and other members of the family helping with the care, the emotional impact and restrictions due to illness or disability can still have an enormous effect on the young carer.
Young carers are supported in a variety of ways:
- regular clubs and activities
- one-to-one support where needed
- someone to talk to who understands
- targeted group work
- information, advice and signposting
- opportunity to meet with other young carers
- support in schools
The Rotary Club of Princes Risborough supports Young Carers Bucks in a number of ways via
- Annual Donations
- Sailing days at Rickmasworth Aquadrome
- Annual Christmas Party
- Driving the young carer community to weekly club meetings
- Annual pantomime at West Wycombe
