Locum Role
Personal Advisor - West Sussex Council
The Leaving Care Service is part of Corporate Parenting within West Sussex County Council and provides direct support to over 600 young people each year. The Service supports, and plays a key role in, the journey of young people between the ages of 16 to 21, and up to 25 in some cases, as they leave care and transition towards an independent future as young adults; guiding, advising and enabling young people with their aspirations.
The Care Leavers service work with our care leavers between the ages of 17-25 in their transition to adulthood. Personal Advisors support care leavers to develop the skills needed to live independently and to be aspirational in identifying and achieving their goals, including healthy living, stable homes and good educational opportunities. Transitioning into adulthood is a challenging time for any young people. This is especially so for our Care Leavers who have often experienced trauma and may have complex needs including mental health, substance use and offending behaviours
