Great Yarmouth & Gorleston Young Carers is a voluntary organisation that provides support groups for young carers aged 11-25. These young people are caring for either their parents or siblings and their caring roles can include anything from bathing to giving medication and doing the household chores. This impacts on the young people socially and emotionally but the group provides an opportunity for the young people to be supported and listened to, as well as to have fun and socialise with other young people who are in the same situation. 'GYGYC gives us hope in our lives, something to look forward to and someone to talk to - I don't know what I would do without it!' - Ricki, young carer, aged 18. Unfortunately, our current funding for the 11-15 group runs out in January, without this group there is no alternative for young carers in the area. Therefore we are asking for donations to continue the group in the new year and continue to provide clearly valuable support.
