Congratulations to everyone who ran today #LONDONMARATHON ! 🎉

Considering entering for 2025? please don’t forget small charities like ours🌈🌟

It's even harder for small charities to get places. We're relying now more than ever on those to enter the ballot for us!

A big cheer to Suzie Walker who will be taking part in the @londonmarathon tomorrow in aid of Be Free Young Carers

There's time to donate for tomorrows marathon; justgiving.com/page/suzie-wal…

We have received some lovely feedback that we wanted to share 👏

A volunteer at a primary school from our world book day tour has shared the incredible impact it has had one of their students.

It is inspiring to see that our impact doesn't just stop with young carers!

Good luck to Craig and Deane, who work for our wonderful partner, David Wilson Homes!

They will be jumping from 15,000 ft in the air and all to raise funds for our young carers this Saturday! They are superstars 🌟

Wow, an incredible amount raised! A massive thank you to the runners, the sponsors, and all who shared the news to encourage more donations.

Until next year @londonlandmarkshalf

Throughout this year, we will be looking back on our history, pivotal moments & more importantly, the families we have helped. We will also be hosting some amazing fundraising & milestone events for everyone to get involved in.🎉

One of our biggest achievements was becoming Thames Valley's Charity of the Year in 2021🎉

We might be considered a small charity, but always know we can make a huge impact!

It doesn't matter how small you are, it's about how vital you can be for others🌈⭐

#NationalSiblingsDay #oxfordshire #youngcarers

No matter how challenging this all can be, Young Carers enjoy and value the unique connection and relationship with their brother or sister. Something that we see so clearly when we go to home visits and on trips. 🌈🌟

#NationalSiblingsDay #YoungCarers #befreeyc

It's challenging to spend time with parents, with #youngcarers stepping up to help out around the home or with caring tasks. Many children not only care for their siblings, but also their parents too, which puts even more pressure on their caring roles.

#SiblingsDay

We know that for #youngcarers who grow up with a disabled sibling, they often spend a lot of time coming second to their needs. Their everyday life is mainly impacted by their brother or sister’s routine and their abilities.

#charityambassadors #oxfordshire #youthwork #youngcarers

In 2022, we sadly lost one of our first original Charity Ambassadors, Hasnath Miah.

Working closely with our charity for over two and a half years, Hasnath always wanted to ensure he did as much as he could for those in need.

We now have over 140 #YoungCarers registered in Oxford! 🎉

With more referrals and opportunities for Young Carers in #Oxford coming in daily, this project has been a considerable achievement. We can't wait to see more growth as we look to become a countywide organisation!

In 2022, our charity secured vital funding for our project to expand into Oxford. This area previously had no specialist support for Young Carers, with an estimated of up to 2,000 young carers across the city...
