Moving into adulthood
We know that moving on from being a child to being an adult is a huge step, especially for young people who need care and support.
Our work is based on that set out in the Care Act 2014. We make sure that young people who are likely to need adult social care get the right support for them.
Our team want to support you every step of the way to make your journey smoother, gain access to the right support at the right time, and empower you to live you best life.
Becoming an adult is not just about changing services, it is about about getting prepared for a fullfilling and independent adult life.
Who we support
We work with young people aged 14 to 25 years who:
- have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP)
- are likely to meet Care Act eligibility for adult social care
- have a diagnosis of learning disabilities, physical disabilities, and / or autism, or a young person who is waiting for a diagnosis relating to one of these areas, and / or complex needs
