Care leavers
If you've been in the care of the local authority there are a range of services available to help you. This can include help to get accommodation and support.
For more information about what assistance is available to you and details of who to contact for further advice when leaving care.
If you're living in local authority care, or you were in the past, you may be entitled to additional priority to help you to move home.
If you've been in care and are about to become homeless or are homeless and you need more help, The Targeted Youth Support Team offer support, information and advice to young people aged 16 -21.

An assessment will be completed with TYS and Children’s Social Care. This assessment will include discussing your circumstances and any support needs. This will help us to prevent you becoming homeless and assist you to return home where this is suitable.
