Cheshire Young Carers, by Mrs Muddy
Date: 7th Jul 2023 @ 2:46pm
A young carer is a child aged 6 to 18 who carries out activities that can be defined as “providing care” for a parent/guardian or sibling. Many of them do not qualify for any kind of statutory support. The carer role they undertake can range from occasionally looking after a sibling to supporting an adult with medical interventions, general housework, preparing meals and generally running the household.
Please find below a leaflet which has information on the support offered by Cheshire Young Carers. Click on the links below for more information about their holiday programmes.

Down Syndrome Cheshire, by Mrs Muddy
Date: 26th May 2023 @ 10:24pm
This week we welcomed Steve, from Down Syndrome Cheshire, for our assembly. He spoke to the children about Down Syndrome, what it is and how it can affect children and adults. We also talked about how being a good friend to someone with Down Syndrome is the same as being a good friend to anyone; be kind, be thoughtful and support and listen. He thanked the children for all of the money and awareness they have raised for Downs Syndrome Cheshire and he taught the children some Makaton including the signs for 'friend' and 'play'. The children listened brilliantly and, as always, warmly welcomed our visitor with respect and great listening. Our School Council had supported the children in class to identify our charities for this year so they got meet Steve and have a photograph taken.
