We are the Young Carers' Project, part of Kingston Carers' Network.

We are a charity dedicated to supporting children and young people in the borough of Kingston-upon-Thames, between the ages of 5 and 18, who have caring responsibilities for someone at home.

We work hard to offer young carers opportunities to access information, advice, support and a break from caring in a safe and positive environment outside of the home (visit our how we can help page for more information).

To do this, we rely solely on funding from outside the organisation.

If you would like to get involved in helping us to continue with our work visit our support us page!

We provide:

• Information and advice, including 1-to-1 support
• Opportunities to meet other young carers
• Fun activities, outings and breaks away from home
• Regular drop ins
• Awareness raising of the needs of young carers, particularly in schools
• Advocacy and whole family support
• Quarterly newsletter
