Speaking in the House of Lords on 12 June 2025
Debate
Children’s Wellbeing and Schools BillContribution
The noble Lord, Lord Hampton, commended the internship model, leading by example, and also the mental health offer, which is something that we will come back to. These measures, alongside wider work—such as the recently launched national website that I mentioned, which clearly sets out available support to care leavers, including support that is provided by central Government—will signpost the support already available. The purpose of this is to make it much more likely that the support available is accessed and used to its best ability. Of course local authorities—referenced by the noble Lord, Lord Lucas—will have a significant part to play in the offer.
