Welcome to The Transformed You

Established in 2013, The Transformed You is a Care Experienced led organisation, specialising in providing Intervention and Support Mentoring Programmes and Services, to transform the lives and raise the aspirations of Children and Young People in Care and Care Leavers, because we believe that Change Is Possible.

Our Why?

Children and Young People enter the Care System filled with trauma, rejection and fear. Our adverse childhood experiences impact on how we grow and develop, which can present as behaviour and emotional difficulties that impact on our school performance, our home life, our social interactions and how we see ourselves and how we see our future.

Through Our Service we:

  • Teach our Mentees how to identify and channel their emotions

  • Teach them how to respond to and work through difficult and challenging times

  • Support them to learn how to develop healthy social skills

  • Empower them to have a positive sense of who they are

  • Affirm their ability to achieve their aspirations 

  • Help them create a pathway on how to make their dreams their reality

  • Support them to express their views, feelings and wishes to Professionals to make sure their needs are met

  • Equip them with Life Skills for life after Care

More Information about what we do can be found throughout our Website!

We’re an Independent Organisation (not Government Funded) and so if our Cause resonates with you and you’d like to help us continue making a difference in the lives of Children and Young People in Care and Care Leavers, why not consider Shopping With Us or becoming a Pay It Forward Champion.

Thank You in Advance, With Your Help, Change Is Possible!
