🕵 Myth Busting 🕵️‍♀️

This is not true, you can apply for student finance and get this paid to the uni or college. Loan repayments will only start when you earn above a certain amount.

How can you and your organisation be more empathetic to the often overlooked #careleaver population?

We’re holding an event, hosted by @sueperkins & featuring an amazing mix of people, during care leavers week to discuss this.

Let's end the #carecliff. #NCLW2020

[Become @BecomeCharity]

Only 20% of care leavers in foster care remain with their carers at 18. The majority (40%) end up in semi-independent or fully independent accommodation. The reality is that most young adults still need considerable support at that age. Let's end the #carecliff. #NCLW2020

[Care Leaver Covenant @CareLeaverCov]

Today marks the start of National Care Leavers Week. Together, let's raise awareness of the issues faced by youngsters leaving care, and encourage support by businesses, higher education, universities, local authorities and communities!
