We want you to be an active member of society and have the chances in life that all young adults should have.
We can help you be a part of your local community in the following ways:
- Providing a hub in the city centre with drop in, and support from lots of agencies. You can access advice, and there are facilities such as showers, washing machine and a kitchen. It is somewhere you can feel comfortable and assured and make links with the agencies who are supporting you.
- Provide information about groups and clubs you may want to join and finding leisure activities you would like to do.
- Tell you about relevant awards, schemes, and competitions you can enter and voluntary work you may be interested in.
- Encourage and help you to enrol on the electoral register so you can vote in elections and find a way to influence your future.
- Peterborough City Council supports 'care-experience' as a protected characteristic so we will champion you - we will give you advice and help you to challenge any discrimination or disadvantage you might face in society as a care leaver.
- As the ‘Family Business’ we will advocate for your needs within Peterborough City Council. As an employer and Corporate Parent we will provide job opportunities, career paths and workplace expectations.
