Deciding what 'care experience' means: consultation - easy read

Easy read version of consultation seeking views on the need for a universal definition of ‘care experience’ and what the potential impacts of this could be.


What is the consultation about and who is it for?

A definition explains what something means.

We need to have one definition of the words ‘care experienced.’

The Promise:

  • is a statement of what needs to change to support people with care experience
  • tells us that ‘care experience’ means different things to different people

If there is one definition of care experience it will:

  • help people to understand care experience
  • support people with care experience to know what their rights are and what support they can get

We want to know what you think the definition should be.
