What should employers consider when employing care leavers or care experienced people

In this episode 210 of the podcast I am joined by Ali Steele from Wight Oak Youth Services to discuss the importance for employers to think purposefully about employing care leavers and to consider the individual requirements of those who are care experienced.

In this episode of the podcast we cover:

Why it is important to consider care experienced employees.
What steps you can take to show support for care experienced employees.
The kinds of things that employers should be considering with regards to care leavers and care experienced persons.
Why christmas celebrations and birthdays can be a trigger or particularly difficult for care leavers.
Why young people from care often have higher resilience and better life skills and are more resourceful when compared to their peers.
Small things that you can do to promote awareness and best practice.
