The Young Shoulders Programme is using a £600,000 grant over five years to expand its current project to include more tailored support for young people aged 8-17. The project is supporting young people who are dealing with a parental/carer diagnosis or cancer related bereavement and young carers. The project is helping young people deal with issues including stress, separation anxiety, and coping with school. Activities include one-to-one support, events, and community hubs led by the young people.
