1 min read Social Care Youth Work
An exhibition exploring the experiences and aspirations of looked-after young people will mark this year's National Care Leavers' Week.

Home from Home, at the 12 Star Gallery in Westminster, features art, photography and poetry by children in care. It will be launched with a private viewing on 20 October and run until 30 October.

The exhibition has been organised by the children in care charity Voice, in partnership with Arts Council England, Tate Britain, John Lyons Charity and Ealing Council.

John Kemmis, chief executive of Voice said: "We want to ensure that the issues that affect care leavers remain at the forefront of the minds of both national legislators and local commissioners of services and we hope that this exhibition will help achieve this."
