Financial Independence is the key to long-term stability For many care leavers, financial independence is a daunting challenge. Many have limited financial education or experience managing personal budgets, making it difficult to afford daily necessities or save for future goals. If you're an individual why not consider volunteering to teach financial literacy skills or partnering with programs that provide budgeting and financial management training for young adults in need? Financial stability can make an enormous difference in helping care leavers feel empowered and confident in their journey toward independence. Empowering young adults with financial skills is an investment in their future—and ours. #nationalcareleaversweek #FinancialLiteracy #EmpowerCareLeavers #VistaLiving Ryan Williams Kim Thompson Jordan Gould Amelia Henderson

Supporting Mental Health in Care Leavers 💙 Leaving care can often mean leaving behind a supportive network, and many care leavers experience higher rates of anxiety, depression, and loneliness. The absence of a family support system makes it crucial for these young adults to have access to mental health resources and emotional support. Here's how we can all make a difference this #nationalcareleaversweek Encourage local mental health programs to consider the needs of care leavers or volunteer your time to mental health services. Community initiatives that offer emotional support and mental wellness programs can help care leavers find the stability they deserve ✅ Let’s ensure they know they are not alone. Together, we can make mental health support accessible to all. #MentalHealthMatters #SupportCareLeavers #VistaLiving Ryan Williams Kim Thompson Jordan Gould Amelia Henderson

Did you know that young adults transitioning from care face numerous challenges in accessing education and job opportunities? 🎓 Limited work experience, a lack of formal qualifications, and fewer resources can limit their access to steady employment or higher education. Here's how we can all help make a positive difference for National Care Leavers Week: Mentorship can make a world of difference—consider mentoring a young adult, providing internships or entry-level opportunities, or sponsoring job training programs that prepare care leavers for the workforce. Together, we can help build a future where care leavers have equal opportunities to achieve their dreams and secure rewarding careers. #nationalcareleaversweek #EducationForAll #EmploymentOpportunities #VistaLiving Ryan Williams Kim Thompson Jordan Gould Amelia Henderson

Housing Instability: A Significant Barrier for Care Leavers 🏠 Stable housing is essential for everyone, yet for many care leavers, this remains out of reach. Once they exit the care system, young people often face limited access to affordable housing, short-term accommodations, or a lack of available support. This housing insecurity can have a ripple effect, impacting every aspect of their lives, from employment to mental health. How You Can Help: Advocate for affordable and long-term housing options in your community. Supporting organisations that assist care leavers in finding secure housing is also invaluable. If you’re a landlord or property manager, consider rental schemes that benefit young adults entering adulthood without family support. Let’s work together to ensure no young adult has to navigate housing insecurity alone. #AffordableHousing #SupportCareLeavers #VistaLiving Ryan Williams Kim Thompson

This #CareLeaversWeek, we’re bringing to light the unique challenges care leavers face and sharing ways that each of us can make a positive difference. Over the next week, we’ll be exploring key areas where care leavers need our support—and how together we can create meaningful change.
