Hello
As a care leaver, my educational journey has been shaped by the unique challenges and struggles that come with living under social care.
​
Growing up in the care system, I faced numerous obstacles that impacted my educational status, from frequent changes in living arrangements and schools to the emotional and psychological effects of instability and uncertainty.
​
Despite these challenges, I have developed a deep understanding and empathy for young people who share similar experiences. My personal journey has instilled in me a strong resilience and determination to overcome adversity, which has been instrumental in achieving my educational goals. I have learned to navigate the complexities of the education system, advocate for my needs, and seek out resources and support that have enabled me to succeed.
​
This background has given me a unique perspective on the importance of providing tailored support to care leavers and young people in social care. I understand firsthand the critical need for stable, consistent, and compassionate guidance to help them reach their full potential. My experiences have fueled my passion for helping others in similar situations, and I am committed to using my insights and knowledge to make a positive impact in the community.
​
I believe that this charity is uniquely positioned to address the needs of care leavers and young people living with social care. By offering targeted educational support, mentoring, and resources, we can help them overcome the barriers they face and empower them to achieve their academic and personal goals.
Together, we can create a brighter future for these young individuals, fostering a sense of hope, stability, and opportunity.
