If You Don't Want Support

That is okay. This is your choice.

We will:

  • check in with you at least once a year (by letter, call, or message) to remind you that help is available if you ever want it
  • you can re-engage with us at any time before you turn 25, just contact us at the Leaving Care Team

Final Check-In for your 25 Birthday

We will contact you before your 25 birthday to make sure you know who to contact if you need help in the future.

Our Promise

We want you to feel supported, confident, and proud of what you achieve. You are not on your own, we are here when you need us.
