We provide caring, stable and nurturing home, in an informal atmosphere, catering for the needs of children and young people from 8 to 17 years of age on admittance. In consultation with local authorities we provide medium to long-term residential care.
It is our aim to create an atmosphere within which the individual can feel safe to express themselves, find adults they feel able to approach and those that will accept them unreservedly as individuals in their own right. As part of a wider strategy, active attempts are made to rescue the better aspect of the individual’s behaviour, to restart the natural process of growth and development, and equip them with the necessary skills to go on to be productive members of society.
Aims of New Horizons
Our main goal and philosophy at our Children’s Homes is to offer a structured, caring and nurturing environment in which all of the children’s individual needs are met. This provides them an opportunity to meet their full potential in all aspects of their life. We strive to instil a basic understanding of life skills in order for them to have a variety of options once they reach adulthood.
Many children arrive at the home from disadvantaged and chaotic lifestyles; The home is set within an affluent area and this immediately takes away one obstacle faced by young people from impoverished backgrounds. The area being affluent has opportunities that may not be found in less disadvantaged areas. Crime is low in the area, as is anti-social behaviour.
We strive to provide an environment where children and young people develop necessary life skills, to enable them to develop and grow.
We aim to create an atmosphere where children and young people feel safe, welcome and can express themselves freely without fear of rejection or ridicule.
We aim to teach young people the necessary skills to enable them to be able to make decision and have choices as they enter adulthood.
