Suffolk Young Carers

Suffolk Young Carers (SYC) are a team of professionals who help children and young people up to the age of 15 who care for, or are affected by, a family member who has physical or mental illness, or a problem with drugs or alcohol.

At Trimley St Mary Primary School, we support young carers by offering an opportunity to meet other young carers, share experiences and support each other. Jess from SYC comes in every half term to run the “Courageous Pineapple Pie Club” giving the children chance to chat and relax with snacks and games.

If you would like more information, please  contact Mrs Barkworth or Mrs Sampson in the school office, or SYC direct on 01473 835430, e-mail young.carers@suffolkfamilycarers.org or visit their website at www.suffolkfamilycarers.org.
