Emotional growth

and resilience

We use reflective, ethical practice and positive, practical activities in building respectful and trusting relationships with young people.

We are committed to protecting young people’s rights in daily practice and empower them to participate in decisions about their care and future plans.

Team members aim to establish safe relationships with the young people that will enable them to speak freely about their feelings without condemnation or

disapproval and which recognises their emotional and cultural experiences. We believe such an environment empowers young people in their development and growth.

Our practice is based on a belief in the positive value of residential care focused on meeting the individual needs of young people within a group living experience. It focuses on strengths and seeks out opportunities for building on young people’s attributes and skills to promote emotional growth and resilience.
