18/03/2025 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm |
Our youth clubs are just for young carers (aged 5 – 16 years). We have separate groups – primary and secondary – so that young carers of the same age can be together.
The youth clubs give young carers a break and a chance to spend time with other young people who live in similar circumstances.
We enjoy arts and crafts, baking, drama, sports, music and Xbox!
When: Tuesday 18 March, 5 – 6.30 pm

We run two monthly support groups for unpaid carers in York, providing a space to connect, share experiences, and receive peer support from others who understand your situation.
Our Carer Support Workers and volunteers facilitate these groups and are on hand to discuss any concerns, challenges and successes related to your caring role.
We welcome any carers to the groups; if you are not registered with us, you can register during the group.
When: Wednesday 26 March, 1 – 2.30 pm
Where: Oaken Grove Community Centre, Haxby, YO32 3QW
There’s no need to book. Just drop in.
“It’s important for me to come to this group as it’s the only time I spend away from my caring role. It’s good to talk to other carers.”
26/03/2025 5:00 pm - 8:00 pm | Spark York
Join us for peer support and social activities designed for Young Adult Carers, held at Spark on the last Wednesday of the month. These groups are open to carers aged 18 – 25, though we welcome and encourage carers aged 16+ to join in.
Take a well-deserved break from your caring role, connect with other young people who share similar experiences, enjoy good food, and unwind in a relaxed atmosphere.
Food is available from Spark’s Street Food Vendors between 5 – 6:30 pm, followed by an activity from 6:30 to 8 pm.
We’ll be at the tables in the back starting at 5 pm, and then move into the ‘co-working space’ at 6:30 pm.
Feel free to drop by anytime and stay as long as you like. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out!
When: Wednesday 26 March, 5 – 8 pm
