This means you have spent time living with foster carers under local authority care, in residential care (e.g. a children’s home), looked after at home under a supervision order, or in kinship care with relatives or friends, either officially (e.g. a special guardianship order) or informally (without local authority support).
You can find a full list of the different types of care experience on Become’s website.
If you are in Scotland, read more on the Scottish Government website.
