We have 2 Children's homes rated Good by Ofsted, where we place children who are not street wise or criminally active, have suffered trauma and rejection throughout their lives and need a safe, nurturing environment in a home where they can learn to enjoy their childhood.  We have a State Approved SEN School rated Good with Outstanding areas, with an ethos of errorless learning, through fun activity lessons to re-engage them in education.
