National Care Leavers Month and Estranged Student Solidarity Week

This November, we're recognising Care Leaver Month and Estranged Student Solidarity Week, taking the opportunity to celebrate the achievements, resilience and contributions of care-experienced and estranged students across our community.

Published:

Through this year's themes, Leading the Way: From Experience to Empowerment and Invisible No More, we'll be raising awareness, sharing stories, and highlighting the support, opportunities and networks available at Surrey.

What’s happening at Surrey? 

The University of Surrey has been a proud signatory of the Care Leaver Covenant for over 6 years, promising to support the care leaver community in many ways. 

If you’re a care leaver or estranged, you will be added to our Future Leader mailing list so you can hear about the latest events and opportunities at university. Just become estranged or didn’t declare your care leaver status at the beginning of the year? No worries – email the team on SSEDI@surrey.ac.uk.
