Young people with supportive family networks can turn to them for advise when they need it. However, without that support moving into a new home can be challenging.

Every young person deserves to feel valued and supported as they transition to independence.

We often hear about how care experienced young people have been let down or haven't had support when they needed it.

When we come together for workshops, advocacy or events, we are always trying to create space to connect, listen and learn from one another.

Our #Community is full of supportive, talented and passionate young people who continuously lift each other up. We are so proud to be part of it ๐Ÿ’ช

We spent Sunday at Advocacy Academy with our brilliant Settle Advocates ๐Ÿ’ช
