Eastern Ravens Trust | Give Me a Break!

"It’s like a backpack that you have to carry with you. It’s like weighted with rocks…"

Eastern Ravens Trust is a charity in Stockon-On-Tees, founded in 1961 to support children in the local area. They support over 300 young carers, ages 5-18 across Stockton every year.

Young Carers Action Day fell on the 12th of March 2025, and with the theme of this year being "Give Me a Break", Eastern Ravens wanted to highlight the incredible young carers they support and what their day to day looks like, giving us a glimpse into their normality. We interviewed carers as young as 7 and heard stories filled with love and resilience.
