Our chosen charity for our 2025 show is Basingstoke & District Young Carers
Founded in 2009 and officially established as a charity in 2019, Basingstoke & District Young Carers is dedicated to empowering young carers and their families. Our goal is to enhance their emotional and physical well-being while creating opportunities for educational success.
BDYC is dedicated to addressing the unique challenges faced by young carers (aged 8 to 18), in the Basingstoke & Deane district. With an estimated 700,000 young carers nationwide (though the actual number may be higher), these resilient young people, shoulder caregiving responsibilities that impact their lives in profound ways.
Basingstoke Scouting & guiding
Every show we raise funds for The Development Fund, to support members of Scouting and Guiding in the Basingstoke area. The Development Fund ensures the benefits of Scouting and Guiding are available to all, regardless of background or financial circumstance.
