Leaving Care Social Worker

Achieving for Children has implemented a Cluster Model of service delivery. Our model focuses on providing a range of services for children and families in their local area, based on need, not professional structures. Our Clusters are supported by Central Teams, including the Leaving Care service, that deliver organisational wide functions which are too small or too specialist to be split across geographical areas. The Leaving Care service works across Kingston and Richmond to support young people from the age of 16 who are looked after, have recently left care (up to the age of 25) or who are unaccompanied asylum seeking children, to become independent and inspire them to set ambitious goals for themselves. To help the children have the skills, knowledge and confidence they need to live independently.
