Action for Children

By being a fundraising volunteer for Action for Children in Wales, you help us make a real difference to children and their families across the region.

By placing counter collection boxes or helping at an event collection you help us raise awareness and money.

By helping with administration or making Christmas or Action for Children Sunday Calls you help our team stay in touch with our local supporters and discover new ones.

By helping at events you cheer our supporters on to raise even more funds and make our events possible.

Thank You for helping us to do what's right, do what's needed & do what works for children.

We help children and young people aged 5 to 18 who are caring for someone else in their family.

The person a young carer looks after may have an illness, disability, or mental health or substance misuse problem. Some young carers may be the only person providing care, while others may take on responsibilities alongside other family members.

Young carer's lives are restricted because of this need to take responsibility for someone in the family.

We try to make life easier by offering practical and emotional support for the young carer and family so they can enjoy some time of their own and achieve what they want.

We aim to work in different ways to make life better for young carers to feel good about themselves and their future.
