Supported care

We need Supported Carers for young people between the ages of 16-21, with a wide range of needs. We want to offer these young people a secure place to live with a Supported Carer who can help them to develop the independent living skills to enable them to move on to the next stage of their lives, as young adults.

Supported Carers do not need to have qualifications – they need to be genuinely interested in supporting vulnerable young people and providing them with a safe and caring environment.

These pages will provide you with some information on what is involved in looking after young people, as well as how you can apply to become a Supported Carer.
