This research aims to contribute to the growing body of literature on the rights and experiences of care leavers and how they can best be supported to ensure equal opportunities with their peers.Since the devolution of social care in Wales, law and policy concerning local authority duties towards care leavers has begun to diverge from that in England. This study will explore the emerging differences between these two social care systems in the context of devolution. To this end, my proposed research design will feature a mixed-methods approach, using semi-structured interviews with care leavers, social workers and other relevant support workers across local authorities in England and Wales. These interviews will explore the experiences and life trajectories of care leavers who have chosen to leave the local authority area and the perceptions of social workers and key workers regarding the logistical barriers that this may present. After initial sampling, potential participants will be asked to complete a questionnaire to ensure that the sample group fit the criteria outlined below: - Either a care leaver aged 18-30 who have moved out of the local authority area in which they were initially placed or who would have considered this an option with appropriate support; or - A social worker or other relevant key worker who has experience of maintaining contact with a care leaver who has moved out of the local authority area in which they were initially placed.Following this, a representative sample will be randomly selected for interview.There is a potential risk of bias which I will need to remain aware of throughout the research as I am a former care leaver and experienced a difficult transition upon leaving care. I will need to ensure that this does not bias any perspectives offered by potential interviewees. However, this does mean that I have direct experience and understanding of how the care system operates in practice which gives me a unique perspective on barriers facing young care leavers in a similar position to myself.My preferred outcome of this research would be to influence policy to break down barriers faced by care leavers who would like to positively enhance their life trajectories by accepting opportunities out of the local authority area. I would like this project to inform further research aimed at promoting more provision and support for care leavers so that the gap between them and their peers is reduced. Finally, I would like to encourage care leavers to accept opportunities further afield who may not do so without awareness of support networks enabling them to do so.

这项研究的目的是促进护理离开者的权利和经验，以及他们如何能够得到最好的支持，以确保与他们的peer.Since社会关怀在威尔士的权力下放，法律和政策有关的地方当局对护理离开者的责任越来越多的文学机构已经开始偏离在英格兰。本研究将探讨这两个社会护理系统之间的差异，在权力下放的背景下。为此，我提出的研究设计将采用混合方法的方法，使用半结构化的访谈护理离开者，社会工作者和其他相关的支持工作者在英格兰和威尔士的地方当局。这些访谈将探讨选择离开地方当局地区的护理离开者的经历和生活轨迹，以及社会工作者和关键工作者对这可能存在的后勤障碍的看法。在初步抽样后，将要求潜在的参与者填写一份问卷，以确保抽样群体符合以下标准：-18-30岁的脱离照料者，他们已经搬出了他们最初被安置的地方当局地区，或者他们认为这是一种得到适当支持的选择;或-一名社会工作者或其他相关的关键工作者，他们有与离开照顾者保持联系的经验，该照顾者已经搬离了他们最初被安置的地方当局地区。在此之后，将随机抽取一个代表性样本进行访谈。2在整个研究过程中，我需要注意潜在的偏见风险，因为我以前是一名护理离职者，在离开护理后经历了一个艰难的过渡。我需要确保这不会使潜在受访者提供的任何观点产生偏见。然而，这确实意味着我有直接的经验和护理系统在实践中如何运作的理解，这给了我一个独特的视角面临的障碍，年轻的护理离开者在类似的位置我自己。我的首选结果这项研究将影响政策，以打破所面临的障碍护理离开者谁愿意积极地提高他们的生活轨迹，通过接受机会出地方当局的区域。我希望这个项目能为进一步的研究提供信息，旨在促进为护理离开者提供更多的服务和支持，以便缩小他们与同龄人之间的差距。最后，我想鼓励护理离开者接受更远的机会，如果没有意识到支持网络使他们能够这样做，他们可能不会这样做。
