About this event

Join us for this practical and empowering session designed for professionals working with young people who are preparing to transition towards independence. At Social Care Skills, we believe that successful transitions require more than just ticking boxes, they need purposeful preparation, relational support, and life-ready skills. This seminar offers a toolkit of strategies, insights, and resources to guide young people through this pivotal stage of life with confidence.

Whether you’re a key worker, support staff, social worker or manager, this course will help you explore how to build the skills, mindset, and systems that support young people to move forward with greater autonomy, resilience, and self-belief.
