Thank you Surrey Cricket for hosting a fantastic day at the Oval for a group of young carers

The young carers loved meeting players, watching the cricket & meeting Caesar the Lion

More than 139K children and young people provide care for over 20 hours every week.

Their selfless service shouldn’t limit their chances in life.
