Become's campaigning amplifies the voice of care-experienced young people

Winning the Children and Young People's Charity Award was one of Become's real highlights last year. Not only did it pay tribute to the inspiring young care-experienced people we work with, who fight so hard to change the care system, but it also recognised the drive and dedication of every member of the Become team.

Become exists to improve the lives and future chances of care-experienced children and young people. In 2024, we supported nearly 1,500 young people with our services, which include help and advice, guidance into higher and further education and support into employment. That figure also includes young people who co-delivered workshops to adults and professionals who work in the sector through our training programmes.
