Reading to Bristol solo Kayak for Young Carers

Hi, my name is Andrew Turrill, Andy to my friends.


I have set myself the challenge to solo Kayak from Reading to Bristol in aid of Andover Young Carers.


(The term young carer includes children and young people under 18 who provide regular or ongoing care and emotional support to a family member with a disability, illness, mental health condition, or misuse of drug/alcohol.)


I am aiming to raise £450 for this small independent charity through GoFundMe, highlight the work that they do, and to promote awareness.


Having grown up with autism and anxiety, and not to mention five brothers, I found life as a child / young person very challenging. However, attending youth groups, not only helped to build my self-confidence and social skills, but they also sparked my passion for outdoor activities, and therefore, I know what a real difference groups can make to a young person’s life.


Andover Young Carers offer indoor and outdoor activities, vital relief, and vital support to an amazing, but often hidden, group of young people within Northern Test Valley and surrounding districts.


If you would like to support me in my challenge and help Andover Young Carers to continue to support young SUPERHEROES then hit the donate button so together we can make a difference.
