Care leavers

Care leavers under the age of 16

If you are under 16 and are thinking of leaving care, your rights are very different because you are still considered to be a child. Speak to your social worker or contact Childline if you feel you want to leave immediately, if you are having serious problems where you live or are experiencing violence, abuse or bullying. Childline advisers can help with lots of different problems, not just housing. Further information can be found on the Childline website.
