Terms we use

Descriptions used for different groups of care experienced young people

There are three legal terms we use when working out what support we can give you. These are 

  • Eligible child 
  • Relevant child 
  • Former relevant child 

You can check which term applies to you and the support you have the right to by visiting the government’s ‘support for care leavers’

How to access support

If you think this support could help you, speak to your Personal Adviser. They can explain what is available, check whether you are eligible and help you access the support you need.
