Walsall House Project Launch

Walsall House Project Launch

Posted 29th April 2025

The Walsall House Project launch event was held earlier this month at the Transition and Care Leaving Hub in Pleck, Walsall. The project will provide care leavers with nine-months of intensive support to prepare them for leaving care so that they are ready to live independently.  The project also provides opportunities for care leavers to work together in small groups and build a community of support.

“The launch of the House Project in Walsall is part of our ongoing commitment to Walsall’s care leavers.

Care leavers often face discrimination in all walks of society, and we remain dedicated to supporting them transition from care into their adult lives, so they can live a happy and healthy life independently.

Up and down the country, House Projects have a 100% success rate in terms of care leavers successfully maintaining their tenancies, and we look forward to supporting our cohorts here in the borough.“  

Councillor Stacie Elson, Portfolio Holder for Children's Services, Walsall Council
