The Duchess of Cornwall thanks young carers in Wiltshire
Published
The Duchess of Cornwall today visited Youth Action Wiltshire's activity centre to thank young carers. Her Royal Highness said:
I just want to say how grateful everybody is for all you do...I know how hard it’s been for you, especially over lockdown.
The activity centre offers support to young carers from the county, giving them the opportunity to engage in outdoor activities as part of a team to help develop skills, build their self-esteem and confidence.
The Duchess today officially reopened the centre, after it had to close during lockdown, for small groups of carers to enjoy the outdoor activities on offer.
