A very rewarding part of Boleh’s Summer programme was the week giving young carers a break from the challenges faced in their daily lives. Youth Action Wiltshire organised day sails in Boleh for these brave young people and, led by Volunteer Skipper William Barker-Wyatt and Mate Craig Palmer, they were able to benefit fully (picture) from the ‘Can-do’ experience.
William and Craig received very positive feedback and already there are talks of next year’s programme. Commenting on the week Niki Andrews, Senior Wiltshire Young Carers Service Coordinator said “The young people had a wonderful time. Thank you for making this amazing opportunity an experience that I am sure the young people will never forget.”
Our thanks to Wiltshire charity, The Samuel William Farmer Trust who generously funded these sails, to Youth Action Wiltshire and, of course, to our Volunteers who make all this happen.
