Young Carers Week 2008   

Carers are people who assist and provide support to other people in the community (usually family members) who have  a disability, mental health problem, chronic condition or who are frail aged. Many young people in our community are carers for family members who rely upon their support.

Here is a really good website Young Carers NSW for young people who are carers and want some more information or help.


Youth Week 2008   

Youth Week 2008 was a great success with several events including an Art Exhibition, Battle of the Bands and the Bingo Acoustic Special.Youth Week 2008 logo / tattoo
