Devon Young Carers

Supporting an incredible community of young people aged 4-17 across the county. Every Young Carer deserves to be seen, heard and supported.

Every day, young carers in Devon balance school, friendships, and the responsibility of looking after a family member. Their dedication is remarkable,  but it can also be overwhelming.

By supporting our Carer Services, you can help give young people the chance to take a break, enjoy new experiences, and feel recognised for everything they do.

Your support makes a difference.

Where Your Support Helps

Donations directly fund life-changing opportunities such as:

  • Activities and days out. Time to have fun, be active, and connect with others
  • Wellbeing groups and workshops. Building confidence and reducing isolation
  • The Young Carers Festival. A rare chance to relax, make friends, and be heard
  • Practical support. Including resources for those facing the greatest challenges

Even a small contribution can create moments of fun, relief and belonging for a young carer.

Why Your Support Matters

Young carers often miss out on the simple things other young people take for granted, time with friends, space to relax, or opportunities to explore their interests.

With your help, we can ensure they:

  • Feel valued and understood
  • Stay connected and supported
  • Have opportunities to thrive
  • Get the chance to just be young

Together, we can make sure no young carer in Devon feels alone.
