How the care system affects career prospects | Hannah Kirkbride | TEDxNHS

When a child can can no longer be parented at home, the state steps in. The child becomes the ward of the state, or the corporate parent. These children have done nothing wrong but their health and life outcomes can be dramatically affected. Hannah Kirkbride challenges our assumptions about the care system and challenges us to 'see more' in care experienced people. Trigger warning: Childhood trauma, experience of care.
