Unaccompanied Asylum-Seeking Children (UASC)

Some legal information

You will become a Child in Care under S20 of the Children Act.

If you stay in our care for more than 13 weeks and you’re over the age of 16, you will become an ‘eligible child’. When you turn 18, you will become a ‘former relevant care leaver’.

This means you’re entitled to everything in this local offer that is available to an eligible and former relevant child.
