Easter Event for Young Carers

Young Carers got together recently to celebrate the Easter holidays with their families. At a special event at the Museum of Power they were treated to games, crafts and celebration food. The event funded by the Big Lottery and organised by the Museum of Power in partnership with the Volunteer Centre – Maldon and District and Action for Family Carers enabled local families to have a supported fun day out.

Susan Hastings-Herbert manager at the Museum of Power said “The Museum works hard to foster relations in the community. This wonderful day has been a real benefit to local young carers and their families and made possible by working closely with local community groups and businesses. ”

All the families that came along to event said they had a great day and it is hoped that more will follow.

Local businesses Essex and Suffolk Water, Tesco and Hobbycraft also supported the event with in kind donations of time, prizes and activities.
