When a young person turns 18, their hopes, dreams, and the way they see the world don't suddenly shift. So why have people told us that becoming an adult while drawing on care and support can feel like falling off a cliff? We've been speaking with people to find out. We'll share with you soon.

Every young person deserves to live a good life. With the right support, in a way that works for them. But too many face confusing, fragmented support as they prepare for adulthood. Our new co-produced report shares practical ways to make care and support work better: bit.ly/435bLe2

Family and friend carers shared with us what it’s really like for young people to prepare for adulthood while drawing on care and support. These quotes point to what's missing, but also to what's possible. See our recommendations for improving the care and support available buff.ly/hj4afYp

Not everyone receives equitable access to #palliativecare or has the opportunity to think about their future care wishes Discover how the approach is helping us to listen & understand barriers that people underserved by palliative care & wider healthcare systems experience youtu.be/vyeEFl_DOHo

What is a citizen? It’s got nothing to do with your passport. We are all equal already. We all have dignity already. To be a citizen is to know that you are enough and that we each have our own unique contribution to make. youtu.be/9W31efd_SYM
