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 your housing and costs. When you reach the age of 18, you will be responsible for paying all or part of your rent from your income. This is a significant change for all young people, but your Social Worker / Personal Advisor will help you to plan to do this and make sure you have made the best use of your income in order to manage.
