Donate to Eastleigh Young Carers

by

A donation of just £5 provides resources for the Young Carers of Eastleigh. The activities paid for by donations enables young carers to enjoy sessions with other young carers, who will understand their shared pressures and concerns.

Text 1COMM5 to 70085 to donate £5 or find our donate page for other options.

We work with young carers to better understand their caring role, we equip them with tools to cope with their own personal and mental health & wellbeing needs. We also help young carers to achieve their aspirations and develop coping mechanisms.

Volunteer Drivers for Young Carers

by

Our young carers are a fabulous group of kids. Through our young carers project they meet other children living with someone who has difficulties.

We have a busy set of activities like a weekly choir, youth groups and holiday activities.

It would be really wonderful to have you come and drive our young carers to and from their activities. We pay a good mileage rate, all you need is a car and business rate insurances. We will take care of all of your checks so you are good to go!
