'the advancement of education','the advancement of health','the relief of those in need by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage'

The charity was established recognising the importance of relationships to all individuals, and that young people who have experience of the care system sometime have not had the learning or opportunities to develop and maintain supportive relationships. We create communities of support, where people can receive support from experienced, qualified workers, or from other members of the community. We have created communities for people who are becoming parents, are students and who are transitioning from care. We have also developed programmes allowing young people still in the care system to explore the impact of their past relationships and develop new understanding and skills.

Objectives: 4 The organisation's purposes are: 4.1 To advance the mental health and wellbeing of care experienced young people through the provision of ongoing support into their adult life 4.2 The relief of loneliness and isolation in care experienced young people through supporting them to develop meaningful lasting relationships and build wider support networks, to become part of their local community 4.3 To advance education through assisting care experienced young people to challenge the inequalities and stigma they face as they transition from care to independent living
