We want every young carer to feel comfortable, supported, and able to access the group that works best for them. We run Budz groups for children aged 5–11, uTime groups for young people aged 11–15 and YACs groups for young adult carers aged 15+ across the Bradford district, with one group in each Family Hub area.
Our groups are a chance for young carers to take time for themselves, have fun, build confidence, and spend time with other young people who understand their experiences.
Groups run fortnightly throughout the whole year in many venues across the Bradford district, so please check with the team where the groups are taking place. If another location is easier for you or works better for your family, that’s absolutely fine — just let us know which group you would prefer to attend.
We understand that every young carer’s situation is different, and we will always try to support young people in a way that is flexible, inclusive, and centred around their individual needs.
