Our Therapists
Supporting Children In Our Care
Therapy is a main part of our offering to all children in our care. In support of our Care & Love model and the Positive Behaviour Support approach our therapists are trained to help children grow and prepare for life as adults.
We deeply understand that caring for young people with learning disabilities requires a compassionate and skilled team. That’s why we have assembled a team of experienced therapy professionals who are not only highly competent but also genuinely care about helping children with learning disabilities reach their full potential.
