There are many ways in which you can get involved with our work.

Help us to Fundraise

We always need help to fundraise for our vital carers services.

• £5 could pay for a Young Carer like Kate to go on an Ice Skating Trip with other Young Carers, to give her a much needed break away.
• £10 could pay for a Carer like Alan to attend a Relaxation Session with a trained therapist, to help reduce stress levels and the risk of stress induced illnesses.
• £25 could help pay for a Young Carer to attend a Healthy Eating Course to give them the skills need to prepare nutritious meals for themselves and their families.

You could help us by:

• Organising your own fundriasing event such as a coffee morning or bake sale.
• Buying tickets for one of our events / activities such as our Anniversary Concert or Fashion Show.
• Taking part in a national event and raise sponsorship for us e.g. Great North Run, Great North Swim
• If you are a local business we are always looking for Corporate Sponsorship opportunities.
• Volunteering at one of our fundraising events.
