Lancing College & Electric Storm Youth Celebrate 3rd Year of Young Carer Gift Donation
We are incredibly proud to continue our partnership with Electric Storm Youth (ESY) as we celebrate the third consecutive year of supporting the amazing Young Carers in our local community.
This year, our Year 9 pupils and their families generously donated and assembled gift bags filled with thoughtful and high-quality treats — from luxury toiletries and make-up to games, stationery, chocolates and even special gifts like a Lego Batman set. Father Justin, our College Chaplain, was delighted to present the gifts to ESY’s Youth Work Manager on behalf of Lancing College.
Young Carers carry immense daily responsibilities, often placing others’ needs before their own. These gifts serve as a moment of joy and a reminder that they are seen, valued, and truly appreciated. The gifts will be distributed during ESY’s dedicated Young Carers programme which provides confidential, one-to-one support to Young Carers in Lancing and Sompting, helping to improve their self-confidence and overall wellbeing.
Nic Reeves, Young Carers Youth Worker at ESY said “To receive this level of kindness from Lancing College for the third year running makes an immense difference. Our Young Carers dedicate so much of their time to others, these gifts provide a moment of joy and recognition of their strength. Last year, a Young Carer who received a bottle of Dior perfume told us it was the best gift they had ever received. It shows them that they are seen, valued and deserving of being cared for themselves.”
Father Justin adds “As a Christian community, it’s at the heart of who we are to partner with charities like Electric Storm in supporting the young carers of Lancing and Sompting, whose hard work and sacrifice often goes unseen. Our Year 9 students and their families have shown that even small acts of generosity can speak volumes. These gifts are our way of saying to young carers in our local area, that the Christmas message of love and joy is for us all, and it is a privilege for us to stand alongside you and share Christmas with you in this way.”
A heartfelt thank you to our Year 9 families, Father Justin, and the ESY team for helping us support these remarkable young people.
