Description: There is a common thread running throughout all the national requirements for leaving care services “ young people should be given as much support as possible to help ensure that care leavers are fully prepared for the challenges of adult life.

 

Our popular Stepping Out guide is a must-have for all care leavers. This practical handbook provides young people with all they need to know about the key responsibilities of adulthood.

Presented in the style of a personal organiser, this user-friendly guide is clearly divided into several sections, including:

  • Taking care of yourself
  • Housing
  • Educations, training and work
  • Money
  • The law

All sections provide care leavers with information about their rights and the options available to them, as well as guidance, advice and full contact details of organisations that can provide further information.

There are also separate sections for young people to file their own important documents, such as their medical card, P45 and those dreaded utility bills!

Easily customised

Because Stepping Out comes in a loose leaf format, you can easily customise this handy guide by slotting in your own cover and/or local information.
