Settle

Who we are

Settle is a charity that supports young adults as they leave the care system and move into their first
home. We provide intensive one-to-one support addressing practical life skills, sustaining a tenancy
and managing emotional wellbeing. Our preventative approach to homelessness helps careexperienced
young people to make long-lasting changes and thrive.

We are a fast-growing organisation and 2022/23 was a big year for Settle. We worked with more
young people than ever before, developed new services and expanded our team. Since launching in 2015,
we’ve supported over 500 young people across London and the South East and we’re proud to have won
the Care Leavers category award at the 2023 Children and Young People Now Awards. We also featured
in Escape the City’s Top 100 social impact organisations 2022, Guardian Public Service Awards finalists in
2019 and Big Issue’s Top 100 Changemakers in 2022.

We work with some brilliant partners; from JP Morgan Chase Foundation and the National Lottery
Community Fund, to local authorities and housing associations across London. We’re a deeply
committed team of 15 supported by a brilliant board of 7 trustees who help us achieve our social
mission. We have ambitious plans to continue scaling our impact over the coming years and are in the
second year of our 3-year strategy.
