Devon’s Local Offer to Care Leavers
Our Local Offer explains the support and services that you can expect to receive as a care experienced young adult from Devon County Council. It has been co-produced with care experienced young people from Devon and also reflects the South West Regional Offer.
Please be aware that your rights to support can change depending on how long you were in care, so it’s important to understand which legal category applies to you. To be able to get all of the support set out in this offer, you must be a former relevant child/young person/care leaver. For further guidance about this, as well as other important information, please read our What is the Local Offer? page before exploring the Local Offer below.
What if I no longer receive support?
All care experienced young people 18-25 years can request support from our Care Experienced Teams at any time, even if you declined this in the past. To re-connect please contact our Front door on 0345 155 1071 or complete a referral form – your request will be directed to the appropriate team and they will make contact with you within 2 working days.
Did you know? From 30 September 2026, young people age 21-25 years who have previously not wanted a service from us, will now be contacted at least every 12 months, to remind you of our services and support offer and to welcome you to re-connect with your Care Experienced Team.
