THE Rotary Club of Holsworthy is continuing its support of local young carers by funding the monthly drop-ins held in Holsworthy Youth Centre.

The Rotarians also treated a group of young carers to a day out at Dingles Heritage Fairground in Lifton recently where they had an educational tour of the attractions before enjoying the carefree thrills of the classic fairground rides.

The trip was organised by Carewise a local project supporting young carers across North Devon.

Project worker Jim Harvey said: “The support from Holsworthy’s Rotarians has been fantastic and I would like to thank them all for their contribution allowing Carewise to provide much needed respite activities for our young carers. The children had a wonderful day and were made to feel very welcome by all the staff at Dingles.”
