Have you been keeping up with our video series for Care Experienced History Month?

The fifth video is now live! Head over to TikTok to find out from Rebecca, how the care system has changed (or not!) since the 18th and 19th centuries.

You can experience care while living with a parent or family member, or while living outside the family. What does 'care experienced' mean to you?

It's Care Experienced History Month. Learn more via our partners Who Cares? Scotland, visit whocaresscotland.org/care-experienc…. ⬅️
