Unite Foundation + our scholarship = This is us.

We’re the students on the Unite Foundation Scholarship.

We believe being an estranged young person or care leaver shouldn’t mean being left behind.

The Unite Foundation scholarship gives us a rent-free, year-round #HomeAtUniversity, which means we can go to university, stay at university and finish our course, just like anybody else.

We’re not case studies so you won’t find those here. If you want to find out what university life is like for us, and the many benefits of a rent-free #HomeAtUniversity, follow us on Instagram and Tik Tok.

Head to the website to find out more – AllofUs.uk – there may be events or meet ups near you and you can join the community online. It’s safe, sociable and a great way to make new connections.

Everyone is united by the community flag – co-designed by estranged and care experienced students, the colours represent our whole diverse and dynamic community and are flanked by the symbol of equality. You can download and print your own flag here.
