Our organization provides a range of services that make a difference to the lives of children who have severe and complex learning disabilities, and their families.

About Us

Our modern home offers a wide range of resources for children, enabling us to be a creative team who work hard to give children opportunities to develop to their full potential whilst ensuring they feel safe and have a lot of fun.
