Could you offer a young person the caring and supportive environment they need to progress?
Cumbria County Council is searching for those who could offer short-term placements to those aged between 16-21 years old, who are lkeaving foster care and looking to live independently.
By welcoming a young person into your home, you can provide emotional support and help them learn practical skills they will need for adult life.
All you need is a spare room and a safe, supportive environment, along with the time to teach them simple life skills such as budgeting, learning to cook and do housework, attending appointments and building confidence.
