Priority Childcare provides real support from real people. We are focused on the future, and our small and welcoming homes are staffed by teams of supportive carers who build trusting relationships with children and enable them to feel safe, secure, and cared for. We care for children who have support needs associated with social, emotional and mental health difficulties, and work with them to help them meet their full potential and transition towards independence.

Ty George is a beautiful four-bedroom children’s home set in a peaceful location on the outskirts of the historical town of Bridgend. Located on two acres of land with its own driveway and spacious garden area, Ty George is in a perfect location for children to move towards a transition home, foster care or towards independence.
