Meet Ruby 👋
Ruby is 10 years old and helps to care for her sister, who has Autism and ADHD.
Ruby has quite a hands-on caring role, helping her sister with everyday living tasks to keep her calm and happy 😌💕
Ruby`s Dream Experience was to meet the Tasmania JackJumpers Basketball team and attend their training session! 🏀
She was also treated to a night’s stay at Hotel Grand Chancellor in Hobart.
"Thank you so much for the awesome experience. It was amazing and the JackJumpers team was so nice! I learnt lots of new things + new drills. I also managed to get photos and signatures. At the end of the training I got a prize from Will Magnay, a blow up basketball!" 🙌

We had a blast winding it back to the 90s at last year`s Trivia Night 🙌🛼
We`re still feeling the nostalgia, so this year, we`re taking it up a notch with a 70s Disco Fever theme🕺 We can`t wait to see you all sporting your bell-bottoms, platform shoes, and big hair!
Take a trip down memory lane with these throwback photos from last year`s event, and get ready to create more memories with us this year. Expect loads of fun prizes, games, lolly bars, a silent disco, trivia (duh!) and so much more to get excited about 🪩
✨ Book now via the link in our bio.
See you there!

To our amazing community,
In the past few years, we`ve seen demand for our programs and services outstrip our resources to deliver – mainly as a result of COVID-19 impacts, rolling natural disasters, and immense cost of living pressures.
Our goal is that no Young Carer ever has to sit on a wait list, but currently that`s not our reality.
That`s why we`ve been working hard on a pretty special campaign that we can`t wait to share with you soon.
Throughout the campaign, you’ll hear the stories of four incredible Young Carers. You`ll learn how you can support young people just like them right around Australia.
For now, we’re inviting you to join us for the launch event of this new campaign called `I Care. Do You?` 💛
Hear from our CEO, Board chairperson, and Young Carers. Watch the exclusive premiere of some of our campaign videos. Learn how you can help in a multitude of ways.
So, save the date! 🗓 Thursday 30 March from 8.30am-9.30am AEDT at CreativeCubes South Melbourne, or via livestream.
A HUGE shout out to our friends at @creativecubesco for their incredible support of this event.
RSVP by emailing emma@littledreamers.org.au or sending us a DM.
Anyone and everyone is welcome.
