Cooking, budgeting, using public transport and everyday independence skills — practical life skills for young people preparing for greater independence.
Cooking, budgeting, using public transport and everyday independence skills — practical life skills for young people preparing for greater independence.
Practical life skills can make a significant difference to a young person’s confidence and independence.
The programme runs in small groups so every young person gets attention, and sessions are practical from the first week — young people are doing something, not being taught at. Where a young person has specific goals set by a school, family or referring organisation, we build those into the plan and report back on them.
