Participation in society and your community (Care Leavers)

A welcoming space where you can connect with those supporting you and access services during the Leaving Care drop-in hours.

• Location: Chauffeur’s Cottage, St. Peters Road, Peterborough, PE1 1YX

Our Care Leaver Local Offer Lead runs a friendly drop-in session every Wednesday, just for Care Leavers. It is a great chance for you to ask questions, share ideas and help shape the support and opportunities available to you.

We can help you find community groups, sports teams, or clubs that suit your interests. It is great for meeting new people and getting involved. 

View a list of clubs, activities and sports on our Peterborough Information Network directory.

We’ll keep you updated on awards and competitions to help build your skills, confidence, and future opportunities.
