Our work transforms young lives in communities right across the UK. We’ll continue to be here for as long as we’re needed – working with young people to be safe, happy, healthy and hopeful.
We know that changing a childhood, changes a life. We’ve seen the difference it can make. That’s why we are committed to driving positive change for children and young people.
By partnering with us and commissioning a service, you can be confident in our passion and commitment to support children, young people and families through our expertise, knowledge and skills.
We work with a wide range of commissioners and partners at neighbourhood, place-based, and regional geographies to provide innovative, cost-effective integrated health and social care services that operate across the following spectrum of support: Early intervention, Prevention, Targeted, and Specialist.
Our services take a trauma-informed and inclusive approach to address health inequalities. This is based on the principles of personalised care and shared decision making, with the voice of children, young people, and their families at the heart, ensuring all services are accessible and appropriate.
