having access to a whole package of support (especially for those leaving care
following the CLCA 2000), were often in a more fortunate position relative to
other young people in difficulty who leave home at a similar age. Evidence from
this study suggests other young people in difficulty could greatly benefit from the
resources provided by leaving care teams to care leavers. This could be
developed through partnerships or through fostering better links (where these
already exist) between housing providers, social services and voluntary sector
services. This may help to identify and prioritize this often hidden but equally
vulnerable group of young people within the housing arena.
