Today marks the 79th anniversary of #VEDay Alongside PCC @JohnPaulCampion's #PinYourPoppy project, the PCC also supports YSS' Remember Veterans scheme. This important project helps veterans who are currently in or are at risk of becoming involved in the justice system.

Our Remember Veterans worker Lisa was honoured to be able to spend last week in Normandy for the 80th anniversary of D-day. It was a very emotional week, visiting many of the cemeteries, memorials and beaches. #Veterans #DDay80 #Lestweforget

YSS will be at the #Volunteer Expo in #Worcestershire on 14th June at The Guildhall, Worcester. Come on down to see us and open the door to building new skills, meeting new people and supporting those in need in your local community. We can't wait to see you there! #Volunteering

This week is #carersweek which allows us the opportunity to raise awareness of the challenges unpaid carers often face and recognise the contribution they make to families and communities across the UK. At YSS we run the #Worcestershire Young Carers service.

For #Carersweek, the focus for today is #youngcarers. One of our former young carers spoke to BBC Hereford & Worcester this morning about her experience and the support provided to her @YSS. We are all so proud of Cat at YSS for speaking up. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

On Friday YSS attended the Volunteer Expo at Worcester Guildhall. This was a great opportunity to promote the numerous volunteering opportunities available at YSS and meet some other wonderful local charities. #Worcestershire #Volunteering #Volunteer #Community
