Resources
The following page includes various open access resources that I have produced based on my research. These can be used for information purposes, or as a guide when developing support for care-experienced students and graduates.
'Additional Support' resource
This is a resource that has been created for the purpose of signposting care-experienced research participants to charities and organisations that provide support, advice and guidance on accommodation, finance, disability, employment, as well as health and wellbeing.
​
As this was designed for the Care-Experienced Graduates' Decision-Making, Choices and Destinations project, the charities and organisations included are largely based in England and Scotland.
​
You may wish to use this information for a similar purpose, or to inform the creation of more general directories that signpost care-experienced people to relevant charities and organisations.
