Child-Centered Care

The primary goal is the safety, well-being, and individual development of each child. Care is tailored to each child’s needs, promoting positive behaviours, personal growth, and independence.

 

Individualised Support

Children receive bespoke care plans that prioritise their health, education, and emotional well-being. Support includes personal development, behavioural management, and strategies to address trauma or other challenges.

 

Education

Children’s educational needs are prioritised. The home works closely with schools and other professionals to ensure children have access to the resources they need to succeed academically.

 

Family and Social Connections

Family contact is encouraged, where safe and appropriate, to maintain and strengthen children’s sense of identity and belonging.

 

Facilities

A two-bedroom, terraced house in Salford designed to blend into the neighbourhood. Features include a garden, communal areas, and personalised bedrooms. Safety measures include CCTV and door alarms used minimally and only for security purposes.

Operational Approach

Holistic Care
