Gloucestershire Young Carers offers support to young carers aged 8 to 25 by creating a network of support across the county and ensuring service providers understand and address their needs. Many young carers are isolated and unable to enjoy opportunities or speak to others about their experiences as caregivers. GYC aims to provide local activity groups and transportation to give young carers a break from caring and opportunities for fun. Their challenge is to update their web presence and create social media marketing campaigns to raise awareness and funding, while establishing guidelines and safeguards to protect young people when using social media.
