À propos de ce contenu audio

 Drive Forward Foundation is a charity that enables care-experienced young people to achieve their full potential through sustainable and fulfilling employment. 2000 young people leave the London care system ever year, ill-equipped for the challenges that await them. They lack the skills, confidence and support to successfully manage their transition into adulthood and independence and we want to change that. Listen to our care-experience young people share their stories, challenges and successes, hear from our corporate partners committed to providing more work opportunities and from our dedicated staff, working to ensure every care-experienced young person has the greatest chance of living their best life.
