TeensPLUS
Our TeensPLUS programme was created to enhance the lives of young people with disabilities and young carers aged 13 – 25. We provide activities to do at home, work with schools and youth organisations to arrange funded activities and day trips and provide respite activity hampers to young carers.
The TeensPLUS Challenge
In 2021, we began the TeensPLUS challenges which were offered to young people with disabilities and young carers across the country and provided activities to try at home. Young people were able to try new things and develop new hobbies.
The challenges are now a regular 3H project and are open to all those with disabilities and young carers aged 13 -25.

The TeensPLUS Challenge
This summer the West Norfolk Young Carers enjoyed a day at a Thorpe Park with help from funding from our TeensPLUS programme. Time was spent on rides giving them a day of fun and respite from their caring roles. A great day was had by all, many wanting to go again and the coach home was filled with sleeping young carers.

We work with organisations and The Cirdan Sailing Trust to provide young people with disabilities and young carers the opportunity to have an active role in a voyage. Each young person is involved in all aspects of running and sailing a majestic old sailing boat cared for and crewed by Cirdan Sailing Trust.
