"Building Brighter Futures"
With over 30 years of experience, we have been supporting children and young people in achieving their goals and reaching their full potential.
ABOUT CHOICES
Choices Homes for Children has been helping children facing challenges for over 30 years. We offer care and support to children in need, whether they are transitioning to independent living or working towards returning to their families. Our residential homes provide short, medium, and long-term stays, as well as emergency placements. Our team uses the P.A.C.E therapeutic approach to create individual care plans for each child.
We prioritize staff training and development to ensure the best care for the children. Our staff receive ongoing training in areas like safeguarding and behaviour management, as well as regular supervision to ensure they follow best practices. By investing in staff training and supervision, we aim to create a safe and nurturing environment for the children in our care.
Our mission is to provide a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment for children in need. We focus on promoting positive relationships, building trust, and empowering children to have a voice in decisions that affect their lives. We aim to create a homelike atmosphere where children feel valued, respected, and cared for, with dedicated staff committed to providing high-quality care and support.
We provide opportunities for children to develop life skills and independence, such as cooking and managing finances. By fostering a sense of community and belonging, we help children feel more confident and capable of taking on new challenges. We regularly assess and review each child’s progress to ensure they are receiving the appropriate support and encouragement to thrive.
