Support with domestic abuse
If you are experiencing domestic abuse, help is available. Major sporting events can be a difficult time for some people. If you are worried about your own safety, or that of someone you know, confidential support and advice are available on our domestic abuse page.
Making the move to living independently is a big step for any young person. If you are a care leaver we want to make sure you are supported so that this move is as positive as possible. Feeling healthy, confident and supported will make a big difference to your wellbeing during this time and beyond.
Wellbeing includes both your physical and mental health and knowing how to access services which can help you to feel safe and to get any advice you need. That may include sexual health services or support with drugs or alcohol.
You are also entitled to continue with the health assessments you have every six months as a looked after child and this can be a reassuring opportunity to check out anything that's bothering you. As you reach 18 we can provide you with a summary of your health information and if you need to move or register with a new doctor, dentist or optician, your personal advisor can give you advice about finding a suitable practice and registering.
