Our commitment is to the individual young people in our care. Following a thorough and careful assessment of the needs of the individual we develop a programme of care which will support and encourage their positive growth and development.

A key aim is to help them to gain awareness of their own behaviour and how it affects others and to encourage them to take personal responsibility for their actions at all times using a cognitive behavioural approach.

We also aim to integrate each individual back into the education process so that they can fully realize their potential. Our separate independent school being focussed on the special needs of each individual.

Our expectations for our young people are both demanding and optimistic and we have demonstrated that our approach facilitates a progressive programme of change.

By providing small family homes with highly committed staff teams we are able to provide significant levels of individual support which lead to positive outcomes. The individual staff teams are managed and supported by appropriately qualified care managers.

Therapeutic input is provided by our consultant clinical psychologist and in-house qualified counsellor.

Our nine homes and separate school are based in South Somerset and Devon providing all the benefits of a rural environment.

We have developed a reputation for meeting and exceeding the expectations of the placing authorities that use our services and this continues to be our aim.
