Persimmon Homes Wessex has provided £1,000 to Be Free Young Carers to assist children who provide care for relatives.
The Harwell-based charity, situated near Didcot, works with young carers between the ages of eight and 17 throughout Oxfordshire.
The funding was allocated through Persimmon’s Community Champions initiative, which allocates £700,000 annually to charitable causes across Britain.
Pauline Fletcher, the sales director at Persimmon Homes Wessex, said the company was committed to backing organisations that provide meaningful support within Oxfordshire communities.
She described Be Free Young Carers as an organisation whose services can improve the lives of young people facing difficult circumstances.
The charity provides respite provision, youth clubs and wellbeing support for children and teenagers who care for family members with diverse needs.
Its head of fundraising, Hannah Waugh, said Persimmon Homes Wessex’s contribution would help the organisation continue supporting the young carers it serves.
As a small Oxfordshire charity, Be Free Young Carers relies heavily on donations to maintain and expand its services.
Youth clubs, schools and environmental groups in the area have also received recent backing through the same Community Champions scheme.
