What do you think about when you hear the term ‘Care Leaver’? 🤔 PhD researcher, Carrie, and a final year undergraduate, Elle, discuss stereotypes and barriers people who have experienced the care system face. Read: lboro.uk/3FZ3qxV

If we’re going to tackle exploitation, let’s do it properly. Victims are male and female from all upbringings and religions. Every single one of them matter and need a voice. Let’s give them a voice.

Just because a survivor is smiling it doesn’t mean they no longer experience intrusive & distressing flashbacks from their traumatic past. The mask of mental health can be so deceptive.

We are delighted to keep helping young people 18+ stay connected at a critical time in their care journey thanks to our partnership with Vodafone UK

So much to relate to here for #CEP care experienced people of my generation. Our experience, seen as profoundly negative, can produce deep insight, added motivation and desire and we can transform ourselves and situation with love and belief shown in us theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2…

My oldest brother phoned me shortly after watching this and said he wants to start talking about his care experience and justice system experience. This is the biggest impact this interview has had on me. It’s inspired my siblings to start finding power in their own stories.

At a children's home in Stockport, a child waits with his belongings packed with no idea about when or where he will be moving.

At 13 I went into care. At 16 I was kicked out of care & went back to an unstable situation. At 18 I studied law at uni. At 25 I was called to the Bar. At 26 I secured Pupillage. In interviews, I took pride in who I am & where I come from. It’s what formed the advocate within me.

There is such an important story to tell here, the horrors of which need to be turned into a positive voice for the benefit of change and learning. Child Protection Training gofund.me/2bbad2e3

Children in care and care leavers will identify with the trauma responses, the fear of trust, and the impact of their circumstances on their future. Many dig deep to fight and rise. Many lose the battle. Many need help and cannot access it. Dele Inspiring. Brave. Needed

Children do not put themselves in care. Some are born into a dysfunctional world full of trauma, neglect, and abuse. You lose a parent to cancer, mental health, or addiction. Decisions you have no control of, then you face a lifetime of discrimination because of circumstances.

Wow, this is huge! Moving children in care with their belongings in bin bags is now illegal in Maryland (yes I realise how horrific it is in 2024 to have to say this) If you want free luggage in the UK get in touch with Comfort Cases UK #ThisIsNotASuitcase
