📣 Every care leaver deserves fair support! 📣 All local authorities should provide care leavers with the financial help they need to set up their new home. 🏡 A National Voice (ANV), the National Children in Care Council, discovered that not all local authorities are offering the full £3,000, and the rules vary depending on where you live. 🗺️ To tackle this, ANV launched The Grand Campaign to shine a light on the differences in support across the country and hear how these policies impact care leavers directly. 💬 We’re hosting a webinar on Thursday 5 December to dive into the findings, hear direct experiences from young people, and explore how we can all help make a difference. 🌟 🔗 Book now https://ow.ly/CCJP50TXQHk #CareLeavers #SocialJustice #FinancialHelp #LocalAuthorities #Webinar #CareExperience #SupportYoungPeople

Coram Voice is a leading children’s rights organisation.
About us
We get the voices of care experienced children and young people heard. Our values We do this because we believe in a society which recognises and willingly accepts its responsibilities to children and young people. Where the inequalities and discrimination they currently face have been eradicated, where they are fully engaged in all decisions made about their lives and where their views, needs and feelings are at the core of those decisions. Why we are needed? In England today there are 80,000 children and young people reliant on the state for their care and well being and the number is rising with 389,000 more needing some level of support from children’s services. Coram Voice makes sure children know their rights and helps them to navigate the system, challenge decisions and make sure their rights and wellbeing are protected. We empower children to have a role in decision-making processes and with them in the driving seat we improve the system and help them know that someone is listening and taking action.

Coram Voice reposted this
Strategic Lead for Children in Care, Children with Disabilities and Care Leavers. Co-host of The Relational Social Work Podcast.
Great session this afternoon discussing findings of Coram Voice Your Life, Your Care and Your Life Beyond Care surveys. So many of our children in care and care leavers took part and was good to see leaders from across the system in Coventry coming together to reflect on findings and start to pull together an action plan of how we can improve. The plan will be further developed with our children in care council and care leavers forum.
