A Great Day Out – August 2025

Buckinghamshire Young Carers have Outdoor Adventures

24 young carers from Buckinghamshire enjoyed a day of Outdoor Adventures at Longridge Activity Centre in Marlow on 5th August 2025, facilitated by Carers Bucks, and funded by our Standup Comedy Night held at the Beaconsfield Masonic Centre in June 2025, supported by over 60 guests, including freemasons from 5 different lodges, their friends and family. Nigel Fisher and Rob Knock dropped in for a few hours to learn more about what young carers and their responsibilities are, but also to see that they had a fun day.

We received many messages of thanks, and in particular, the parents of these young superstars also sent messages of thanks.

It took him away for the whole day full of activities. Enjoyed time with other children and the adults. Great respite

Thank you so much for organising this day out – “L”really enjoyed it, and it’s something we can’t do with his sibling. He especially loved the SUP at the end. What a fantastic opportunity to try some exciting activities, and all very well organised.

“H” was reluctant to go along, concerned because she didn’t know if she’d know anyone there. But she said it was a brilliant day, she loved the laser tag in particular! Thank you.

From Carers Bucks

Just wanted to drop a thankyou message to you and all of those involved for funding the day at Longridge. Thank you for providing this wonderful opportunity to the young carers we support.
