I have just caught up with Question Time (on the Sky Planner). I see George Osborne is proposing to remove Housing Benefit for under 25's.
We would hope to move our foster teens on to Pathways (supported half-way transition lodgings) or into a Council property with Housing Benefit at around 18yrs old. Most would only stay in Pathways for a year or two.
The future looks grim. What do other foster carers think?
