Programmes in development

Honest about what exists, clear about the plan.

Safe With Me is pre-launch. The email waitlist is live now. Everything below is a programme we are actively developing, and each one tells you exactly where it stands.

Reasons to Stay

A collection of reminders, messages and moments shared by care-experienced people and the wider community — for the days when life feels especially heavy.

Short notes written by people who may understand some of what you're facing. Nothing clinical, nothing preachy. Just honest words you can return to when you need them.

Notes from care-experienced people and allies
Reviewed by a person before anything is published
Themes like a hard day, future you, and small things

Safe With Me is not an emergency or crisis service and we don't monitor submissions 24/7. If you need urgent help, please contact emergency services or an appropriate professional support line.

Something else

This service is in development. Nothing here is a guarantee of support yet — we'd rather be honest than over-promise.

03In development

Community

Weekly online spaces created with care-experienced people, not just for them.

Small, informal sessions shaped by the people who turn up. You can talk, or you can sit quietly with the camera off. Both are fine.

Moving into your first home
University without family support
Money after leaving care
Neurodiversity
Confidence
Starting a business
Cooking on a budget
Topics chosen by the community

The exact schedule and platform will be announced once sessions are ready to run.

04Launching subject to funding & partnerships

Not Alone

Christmas. Birthdays. Milestones. No one should feel forgotten.

A future programme built around the dates that quietly hurt the most when there's no one around to mark them.

Personalised birthday and Christmas packages
Meal or food vouchers
Practical gifts and essential clothing
Celebration notes and optional community contact
Recognition of milestones: graduation, a first home, starting university

Partners will eventually be able to sponsor individual birthdays, Christmas packages or milestone moments.

05In development — subject to funding
