For young people
This page explains what an Independent Visitor is, and what to expect.
What is an IV?
If you are in care, you are entitled to have an Independent Visitor.
What does this mean?
- You get matched with an adult volunteer who does not work for social services.
- They will take you out to do fun activities in the community that you choose.
- It’s all about having fun.
- There is a budget for activities we provide, and it is up to you if you want an IV or not.
