Thrilled to meet with @ChildrensComm's Care Experienced Advisory Board as they launch their Higher Education Handbook.
Leaving care isn’t easy, we need to break down barriers to opportunity for care leavers so they are able to thrive in higher education.

Shocking figures from the Government's annual homelessness report reveal that over 4,300 young #CareLeavers are currently facing homelessness—a staggering 54% increase over the past five years. These vulnerable young people, who have already endured so much, are being let down by the system. It’s a clear call to action for stronger support networks, affordable housing solutions, and long-term care for those leaving the system. We need to do better. #EndHomelessness #SupportCareLeavers #YouthHomelessnessCrisis

This @Ofstednews and @HMIPrisonsnews report on education provision in YOIs is really depressing. It describes failure at every level, meaning that some of the most vulnerable young people in the country aren’t getting a chance to learn.
