Carer nominated by the Shropshire Carers Project for a special flight
8:00am Friday 4th January 2013 in News
Kia Morris on a special flight to treat young carers.
KIA Morris travels every day from her home in Craven Arms to study at Ludlow College.
But for this 16-year-old her work can begin long before she goes out in the morning and continue after she gets home.
Kia is an unsung hero although she would deny it.
As a young carer she is especially deserving of a treat and was nominated by the Shropshire Carers Project for a special flight provided by the Ludlow Advertiser.
The treat was to join other children and young people on a flight operated by Birmingham-based Cello Aviation in a luxuriously appointed aircraft used to fly Premier League football teams and musical stars including Jessie J and Coldplay.
Kia also had the chance to meet James Roe who took Paralympic gold in the rowing.
“It was a great experience and I really enjoyed myself,”
said Kia.
