The Young Carers Wellbeing Grant

The NHS Hull Clinical Commissioning Group and Hull City Council in partnership with KIDS
Charity provide grants for individual Young People who provide care, assistance or support to
another family member who may have a long term illness, disability, mental health difficulties
or problems with drug or alcohol misuse.

The Young Carers Wellbeing grant supports young carers aged between 5 and 17 (up to their
18th birthday) who live in Hull. The Grant widens opportunities for young carers to explore
their own interests and hobbies and improve their overall wellbeing. An application can be
supported through the Hull City Council’s Young Carer Project or any professional that is aware of the young person’s caring responsibilities for example a teacher or health professional.

A Young Carer can apply for a grant up to £300 to support an existing interest, a new hobby or
buy a piece of equipment.

A young carer and their supporting professional can gain further information about The Young Carers Wellbeing Grant by visiting the Local Offer Website using the link below
