ACCOMMODATION<\/span><\/h1>\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\nOur accommodation is adapted and equipped to meet the needs of young people, well maintained, decorated and furnished with highly quality furniture.<\/p>\n
Our homes are ordinary domestic houses; they do not stand out as being different from other houses in the area..<\/p>\n
Our homes are tailored to offer a structured, supportive and nurturing environment where young adults\u00a0 have the opportunity to reflect on their past, come to terms with their current situation and make positive plans for their future.<\/p>\n
Our homes are close to shops, schools, doctors and dentist practices, together with a large range of local services for young people with numerous opportunities for leisure activities. In addition, our homes are located in areas with excellent road and public transport links with main line railway stations nearby.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>[vc_empty_space]DEVELOPMENT<\/span><\/h1>\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\nOur staff team assesses and documents every aspect of the young person\u2019s daily living to establish their level of independence and what areas require support to develop.<\/p>\n
We use the \u201cGetting Ready for Adult Life\u201d programme (Published by Rainer, National Leaving Care Advisory Service and The Fostering Network).<\/p>\n
We also encourage and support our residents in accessing employment, education and training.<\/p>\n
Key-working sessions help young people build up skills in areas that require extra provision until a safe level of independence is achieved and young people can then be supported in the transition to their own home.<\/p>\n
The transition will also include an introduction to our Outreach service.<\/p>\n
There is no timescale for when a young person should be ready for his or her own home. This is done to ensure the young person is ready and prepared before taking this major step in their lives. Over this time, they will be set up with their own bank accounts, passport, benefits and anything else you would expect someone living independently to possess.<\/p>\n
