Throughcare and Aftercare service for young people leaving care

The Champions Board

The Champions Board provides a platform for care experienced young people to talk directly to their corporate parents, elected members and service providers. It aims to

  • ensure that decisions which affect the lives of care experienced young people are informed by their own experiences
  • support care experienced young people to influence change themselves
  • ensure care experienced young people can influence improvements in services and support
  • provide an opportunity for care experienced young people to voice the challenges that being in care can bring and how these can be overcome with the right support
  • ensure the views, opinions and aspirations of care experienced young people are central to decision-making.
