As we begin planning, we want to ensure that the festival continues to be reflective of the needs, interests, and aspirations of the Young Carers who attend. Most importantly, we are looking at ways to make the festival more accessible than ever, so even more Young Carers have the chance to attend this life changing event.
Find out how you can help
In order to make the festival more accessible, we are seeking support from individuals and businesses who want to help in creating joy, fun, and memories that having a lasting impact on Young Carers.
Director of Youth Services, Josh Towers says
“We are determined to make sure no Young Carer is left behind in 2027. The festival is a huge operation, and the more support we have, whether that be volunteering or monetary, means we can support even more Young Carers in attending the festival.”
Support can happen in a number of ways. You can find out how you can support here, or by emailing fundraising@ymca-fg.org.
Fill in the survey
Whether you are a Young Carer, a parent or guardian, or part of an organisation that supports young carers, your feedback is incredibly important to us. You don’t have to have attended YCF to share your thoughts – we want to hear from everyone.
We would be grateful if you could take a few moments to share your thoughts and experiences in our short survey. Together, we can ensure that the Young Carers Festival remains a place where young carers feel celebrated, supported and inspired.
Your voice matters, and we look forward to hearing from you.
