About the Host

Having worked in Social Care for the past 15 years in a range of settings providing front line and managerial support to vulnerable client groups, Bianca decided to take her knowledge, skills and experience and set up her own organisation.

Place of Progress launched in March 2020 during the first national lockdown with one home supporting 3 young people. By October 2021 Place of Progress had opened 5 homes across London with the capacity to support up to 18 young people, is supplying to a number of Local Authorities and is on the approved provider list for many more. Place of Progress is also accredited by the Commissioning Alliance.

Place of Progress has more plans for expansions in 2022 and is teaching those with relevant skills and experience how to set up their own provisions.
