Young People's Views

Quotes from Young people on the project

I started from the bottom & now I’m here. I’m really excited to have my own place & to decorate it the way I want

I feel as though this is a golden opportunity to learn new skills, become independent and take responsibility

My life has been saved and I can do anything that I put my mind to

Since I got my flat my confidence has improved so much, and I finally feel I have my own freedom

It's an exciting opportunity to enjoy making a house a home

HP has given me the confidence and independence to be a better me

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 wanted to join CLNM to prove to everyone that we are not a stereotype but so much better than that and to improve the lives of care leavers not just locally but nationally as well
