I am so proud that our @YCAlliance work won the Young Carers Award at the @cypnow Awards last night. Absolutely delighted to have received this recognition for the combined efforts of all the individual/organisational members and young carers who make the Alliance what it is!
We were thrilled to win the Young Carers Award at @CYPNow Awards for our work on the Young Carers Alliance 🏆
Huge congratulations to fellow finalists @CarersInBeds @family_action Windsor and Maidenhead, both also Alliance members, doing excellent work supporting young carers 💙

Great to be there to celebrate with you. Lots to celebrate!
Yesterday, we held our 27th birthday celebration event at The Inox (@sheffielduni)
We've got LOADS of photos to share with you all - starting with some of the brilliant Party Pod pics.
The photo booth was an absolute hit with young people, families and even staff 😅

Here is part 2 - the young people only met on Tuesday, with even more inspired to get involved yesterday. They discussed, wrote, agreed and delivered such a clear, powerful message clearly stating what they want for all young carers. It was a privilege to be in the room #IYCC2024

What a truly incredibly powerful and fitting way to finish the @iycc2024 with a message from the young carers and young adult carers to the world. All put together by them in just 2 days (See comment for part 2) #Awareness #Support #Choice
