A Caithness charity has been awarded almost £100,000 from the National Lottery to continue providing support to young carers.
Wendy Thain, project manager of Wick-based Caithness Klics, said the award had come as a huge relief after the uncertainty created by the pandemic.
Caithness Klics received £98,726 towards a three-year project that will deliver one-to-one support, group sessions, activities and respite breaks for carers aged five to 18. More than 100 young people are on its books at present.
