Testimonials
Partners
'It was evident that the recruitment process has been well considered, with the various backgrounds and experience, with a golden thread of similar personalities throughout and all wanting to do the best by the young people and each other. This is not something we see regularly in the residential care setting so I feel its important to acknowledge how good this is.'
