National Care Leavers Week: Chantelle’s story

It is National Care Leavers Week and we are using it as an opportunity to celebrate the achievements and contributions made by care-experienced young people. To that end, TACT is publishing a series of blogs by our wonderful care leavers. 

Today it is a blog by Chantelle who struggled to accept being in care, until she found a courage to open up to her carer Jacky. Now, Chantelle considers Jacky not her carer, but her mum.
