Dream Experience

Ever wanted to ride in a hot air balloon? Or run onto the ground with your favourite footy team? We can help!

Our Dream Experience Program is a short-term support designed to celebrate and reward Young Carers for all they do.

If you (or someone you know) is a Young Carer, apply below, list a few things you’d LOVE to do, and we’ll organise your one of a kind Dream Experience!

Big Dreamers

Being a young person between the ages of 14 and 18 is tough.

Mental health becomes increasingly important for Young Carers at this age, as they navigate identity, career, relationships and the added responsibility of a caring role.

Built from personal experience and qualitative research, the Big Dreamers Personal Development Program runs for six months with 15 inspiring Young Carers aged 14-18. The aim of the program is to empower, develop resilience and provide the opportunity for building new skills and finding hidden talents.

Dreamers Hub

Our Dreamers Hub is an online community created by Young Carers for Young Carers.

No matter where you are, if you’re a Young Carer, you’re welcome here!
