young Carers Connected - 13th August!

edited July 2022 in General

Most of you will hopefully remember pre covid we hosted Kids who care for a fun afternoon and tea. Unfortuantely the funding dried up for this, but they have another project now running, where Kids Who Care was all about trips out etc, the new project is more about 1-1 support with some trips out.

they would need about a month their end to sort logistics out, but it would be great if we as a club can support them in their endeavours to give people an afternoon of fun.

for those new to this, this is aimed at young people aged 8-25 that are carers for other family members. our aim is to give them a couple of hours on(in?) the water to generally have some fun and games, followed by tea (sandwiches etc).

If you are interested in helping, whether it be food / land based or boat based (please state), please put your name below.
any help is appreciated

    I could contribute to tea, sandwiches and cake! 13th is OK for me.
  • updated!!

  • Could help on the water on the 20th away on the 13th
  • I can help on the water (preferably) or the bank if needed. I can bring sandwiches. Currently both dates free

  • Happy to get out help on the water and or on the bank. 13th would be best for me, possibly 20th but tbc.

  • Mike Collins - Bank based

  • We are looking at 12 young carers and 1 or 2 adults.

    Jacqui has offered to do some sandwiches and bring over (but can't stay), my mum is doing some tray bake cake, I'll get some crisps etc
  • Do you need any further food or drink brought Mike?
    (separately, I've been called away on business so won't be there this evening, sorry)

  • Steve, if I do the sandwiches, could you send some nice sausage rolls or chicken pieces?
  • No problem, will do!

  • As discussed this evening, I'm available to help wherever needed (water or bank.) What time are we meeting up?

  • Meet up will be 1-1.30

    Many thanks
  • Might have seen my comments about transport issues elsewhere - I'm still on for this!
