Burgess Hill Youth normally runs two weekly youth groups a week, as well as running activities at community events, helping to organise the Christmas Hamper Project, and working with groups including Albion in The Community, Burgess Hill Girls and Burgess Hill District Lions Club.

Burgess Hill Town Council supports Burgess Hill Youth to put on events for young carers throughout the year, and is the initial point of contact for Young Carer enquiries.

Burgess Hill Youth lead the events on the day with support from town council staff.
