Speaking up for care leavers’ housing needs as a care aware MP.

In 2024-25, 4,610 care leavers aged between 18 and 20 experienced homelessness, double that of five years previous. These young people are being pushed into crisis at the very point that they should be building their future.

In Doncaster, we have fantastic organisations such as Doncaster Housing for Young People, which provides real support, particularly for those without a safety net.

As a care aware MP, I will continue to champion the work of DHYP and other organisations helping care leavers thrive as they enter adulthood.
