Young People's Views

Quotes from Young people on the project

I’m going to have a job, own flat and hopefully be driving before I’m 18 and I don’t know anyone else that has that at my age

Starting earlier is better, by the time I’m 18 I will know it all! If I was not on the HP, I would have to learn this at 18 with less support

Before the HP I did not know what I was doing

Dont let your past define your future, Im not

Every week I'm a part of the HP I feel more independent

Being a part of my the HP has really helped my self esteem

Young people at the heart of decision making

Their collective views and ideas drive the development of all House Projects through the Care Leavers National Movement. They meet on a regular basis to share good practice, talk about and find solutions to any challenges they are facing and to suggest new ways of doing things. They work hard, have fun and their views make a real difference to how young people leave care and move into their own homes.

I joined CLNM because I want to make a difference, help others and want care leavers' voices to be heard.
