Guided by Empathy and Understanding
Our therapeutic residential setting is designed to offer a safe and nurturing environment where every child is understood and supported through a lens of empathy and psychological awareness. At the heart of our approach is a commitment to trauma-informed care, which recognises the prevalence and pervasive impact of trauma.
We understand that the effects of trauma can be profound and lasting, influencing a child’s emotional, psychological, and physical health.
Our staff are trained in trauma-informed practices, ensuring that all interactions and interventions are grounded in an understanding of the triggers and vulnerabilities that may arise from past traumas. Our therapy home provides personalised therapeutic interventions tailored to the unique needs of each child. This includes individual therapy sessions, group therapy, and therapeutic activities designed to help children process their experiences and develop coping strategies.
Our Mission
Our goal is to facilitate healing and resilience, enabling children to move forward with confidence and hope.
Improving Children’s Lives
Assist Care is regulated by Ofsted, and is dedicated to providing high-quality support to vulnerable children (aged 7-17) through children's homes. Our mission is to improve and sustain the quality of their lives, offering support that makes a tangible difference and empowers them to move forward with skill and confidence.
Creating a Nurturing Environment
We are passionate about creating a nurturing environment that promotes resilience and self-care, enabling the rebuilding of self-esteem and paving the way for a chosen future. Our focus is on children aged 7-17, many of whom have experienced traumatic or unhappy pasts that make it challenging for them to feel safe, valued, and empowered.
Empowering Every Child
At the core of our mission is the belief that every individual deserves to feel secure and empowered. We recognise the unique challenges faced by our children and are committed to providing a supportive environment that addresses their specific needs while fostering personal growth and development
Somewhere to Call Home
We believe every child deserves a safe, nurturing place to call home. Our homes are designed to be welcoming, friendly, and homely, promoting a sense of belonging and pride. We encourage personalisation of bedrooms and shared responsibility for communal spaces to foster ownership and comfort.
Respect for Each Individual
We recognise that every child is unique, with distinct abilities, goals, and needs. Our approach involves listening without judgement and tailoring support to help each child discover their talents, abilities, and strengths, promoting pride in who they are and hope for their future
People Who Care
Understanding the challenges of transitioning into adulthood, we are committed to hiring compassionate, skilled, and trustworthy staff. Our team builds safe, trusting relationships with the children, delivering person-centred support that prioritises respect in all communications
