I want to make a difference with these young adults by providing a home away from home. this is a passion i always have and would like to see it come to light. these young people have the ability to self-manage but need to be supervised. that is where my business comes in. hopeful one day they will develop there confidence that they can live independently

his might include, for example, young people with experience of being looked after in care, people with learning difficulties, mental health service users, older people, physically and/or sensory impaired people, people using palliative care services and people with drug and alcohol problems. this will also involve social services, CQC, QCS and hospitals

I have conducted some research in the area I live in and the surrounding area and found that the waiting list is very long. so the demand is much greater than the supply.

my core customers would be the private sectors and the government

I have not rally discuss this with no one else as i was planning to be a sole trader
