For #Carersweek, the focus for today is #youngcarers. One of our former young carers spoke to @bbchw this morning about her experience and the support provided to her @YSS. We are all so proud of Cat at YSS for speaking up.

Our Remember Veterans worker Lisa was honoured to be able to spend last week in Normandy for the 80th anniversary of D-day. It was a very emotional week, visiting many of the cemeteries, memorials and beaches. #Veterans #DDay80 #Lestweforget
