The home is also mixed gendered, and has typically had a mix of 2-3 females or 2-3 males at any given time. Most of the young people have free time for themselves out in the community, and rarely require 1:1 support. However, most of the young people require support to access education, and all of the young people require staff support whilst out in the community to spend and manage their allowances. The needs tend to be more of the 'traditional' needs within residential care, and the therapeutic approaches to managing and understanding these risks is key.
