Mandy and Kate chat to Maddy, CEO and founder of Little Dreamers, a not-for-profit organisation supporting young people age 4 to 25 who provide care for a family member affected by disability, chronic or mental illness, addiction or frail age.  Maddy launched Little Dreamers at age 16, inspired by her experiences of caring for her brother and mum, who both had chronic illnesses. Little Dreamers support young carers through a range of programs, connections and opportunities, including dream experiences, holiday programs, peer support programs, tutoring and advocacy.  Little Dreamers also helps young carers find friendships and support with other kids and young people who understand. Maddy talks about her personal experience, founding Little Dreamers, many of the common experiences and challenges faced by young carers and all of her hopes and plans for Little Dreamers’ future.If you know and love a young person who could benefit from Little Dreamers support, or you would like to donate funds, collaborate or volunteer your time, check out their website for all the information.  You can also follow Little Dreamers on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter    Thank you Maddy for all of your incredible work in supporting young carers and for talking to us today!Plus:Listen to our Spotify playlist –Too Peas: Songs Our Guest Peas LoveJoin our Facebook HangoutFind us on YouTubeBuy our book The Invisible Life Of Us!Leave us a speakpipe Help spread the love for Too Peas by rating and reviewing us!Melbourne forecast for Thursday July 13 - Becoming windy, partly cloudy, 15 degreesThank you for supporting Too Peas In A Podcast!
