On Sunday 24th May, I will be taking part in the Evolution Strength and Fitness Charity Truck Pull.
I will be pulling a 7.5 tonne truck over a 15 metre course in Aylesford, Kent raising money for Kingston Carers’ Network Young Carers’ Project and Alzheimer’s Society. This is the page to donate to the Young Carers’ Project.
I have chosen to raise money for the Young Carers’ Project as they have been a fantastic support to both me and Jordan and I would like to give something back.
Unpaid caring and carers feature increasingly in our society, as people live longer and as government-funded healthcare struggles to keep pace with the strains and stresses of individual and family needs, especially amongst the most vulnerable.
KCN works hard to relieve hardship, improve carers quality of life and reduce the isolation of carers through a large range of services. Additionally, the Young Carers' Project provide fun and friendship for young carers ensuring that children are thriving and protected from inappropriate caring roles.
