New research from the Centre for Homelessness Impact gave 99 young people leaving care a £2,000 unconditional cash transfer.

The study found that young people who received the payment were more likely to be in stable housing six months later and less likely to be sofa surfing.

Dan Jones, Settle's CEO, said: "Money matters and this research shows the difference that targeted financial support can make to young people leaving care. We're also glad to see robust evidence of the positive impact that happens when you give young people control. The young people we work with at Settle know what they want and need as they set out into adulthood and independence. It's our job to give them the support that meets them where they are, so they can take the next step that's right for them."

This is good, but I wish UCAS would begin to record the statistics for #careleavers and #careexperienced who end up doing PhDs and postgraduate study also. There is a lack of any data on this.
