Care Leavers - Accommodation and finance

How will I pay my rent and bills?

Whilst you are still looked after, your Social Worker/Personal Advisor will make all the arrangements for both your:

  • housing
  • costs

When you reach the age of 18, you will be responsible for paying all or part of your rent from your income.

We understand that this is a big change for all young people.

As a result, your Social Worker/Personal Advisor will:

  • help you to plan to do this
  • make sure you have made the best use of your income in order to manage
