Award-winning service
Our children’s complex care services support children and young people up to the age of 18 with complex health or behavioural problems allowing them to learn and grow whilst being supported by specialist carers.
We provide round the clock specialist care for young people up to the age of 18 with complex physical health problems, with either severe physical or learning disabilities, a combination of the two or long-term conditions, in addition to those who display challenging behaviours associated with their diagnosis.
Nurturing environemnts
Our specialist services offer nurturing, homely environments which allow our young residents to feel like they’re part of our family — we get to know every resident.
Experienced teams
With over 25 years’ practical experience and knowledge dealing with children and young people, we understand complex care in a way few others do.
Positive outcomes
We believe everyone we care for has the potential to take steps forward with us, to improve, to learn to grow — physically, mentally and socially.
Transformative steps
We believe in the young people we care for so when they progress it’s a source of delight and pride for everyone involved, from carers to family members.
I love coming here to see my little sister. This is her happy place and it’s great to see her enjoying life to the fullest and getting the care she needs to continue living her best life.

Long and short-term care options available.
Some of our residents join us at an early age, others join us in their early teens as their condition becomes increasingly difficult to manage at home.
Those staying with us permanently can decorate their own rooms, just as they can at home, and we encourage our young people, wherever possible, to be part of the running of their home and to try out new experiences, and are given specialist guidance and support throughout their time with us.
Our children’s complex care services offer a short break option, also called ‘respite care’. The short break option is popular with families, who from time-to-time, need a break from their caring responsibilities. A short break at either of our children’s homes also offers the opportunity for young people to make friends, encounter new experiences and allows us the chance to assess and offer some practical suggestions for their ongoing care at home.
Families often use our ‘short break’ option early on in their children’s lives and, on a regular basis, with the view that, should the need arise for residential children’s care at any point in the future, their child is already familiar with our team and the environment.
