Local Charity Focus: Andover Young Carers – By Lily (Harrow Way School)

Andover Young Carers is a charity that helps young carers up to the age of 18 get the help and support they need. They have been providing this support since 2000.

The team is made up of a friendly group of workers and volunteers who aim to meet the needs of every young carer, ensuring they feel supported. Their services not only provide support but also respite for carers, holiday activities, and referrals for people who need additional assistance.

If you need help or support, you can contact them by calling 01264 333788, because they believe that no young carer should feel alone. One in three young carers say they feel alone, and Andover Young Carers want to change that.

If you want to help, they are always looking for volunteers with free time or donations via their website andoveryoungcarers.co.uk. You can also contact them on their number 01264 333788 or email them at info@andoveryoungcarers.co.uk.
