Explore every episode of the podcast Settle Down Podcast

Hosted by Settle Advocates Aziza and Aaliyah, in this episode of the Settle Down Podcast we discuss the challenges care leavers face while transitioning to adulthood, emphasising the need for stable housing, financial security, and supportive relationships. They share personal stories about unstable housing and the importance of distinguishing between being housed and supported. Highlighting the 'Home of Our Own' campaign, they stress the vital role of organisations like Settle, which provide personalised support. The podcast also addresses misconceptions about care leavers and calls for systemic improvements within local authorities, and the wider care system.
