Description:
Footsteps to Futures Ltd is an independent therapeutic residential children’s home provider, operating homes across the East Midlands since 2014. We are committed to improving the lives of young people and children with emotional and behavioural difficulties by providing warm, safe and therapeutic living environments. Our aim is to offer all members of the Footsteps to Futures family the best opportunities in life through emotional discovery, teaching life skills and supporting them in building their social skills.
We fully believe in quality over quantity, and our vision is to create a high-quality service which can achieve the best outcomes for all children and young people that step through our doors. As an independent provider, we are able to focus our resources more effectively on the outcomes of our young people, through a bespoke and individualised care plan that suits their needs and works towards positive outcomes.
Every placement receives a robust Baseline Psychological Assessment as standard. These are completed within the first two months of a young person moving to one of our homes.
This then lends information to a therapeutic plan which is tailored to them based on their treatment needs. This is a working document which developed over time-based on the young person’s thoughts and feelings.
