  • What happens after I contact you?
    The first step in providing any service is requesting from you a Statement of Purpose. This is a document which outlines what you need from us, any objectives, challenges & goals so we can evaluate how best to meet your needs.
  • How much do your services cost?
    We tailor our services to your needs so every service we provide is different. We can discuss the details of potential contracts and how we can meet your needs.

  • What happens during a Regulation 44 visit?
    One important focus for these visits will be to scrutinise how the home is supporting children to enjoy and achieve. The person making the visits will wish to be satisfied that the home has an effective approach to behaviour management. Visits should routinely examine records of restraint and logs of missing person's reports, to check that the home provides stable, safe and secure care.
  • What is an Independent Monitoring Visit?
    An Independent Monitoring Visit (commonly referred to as a Regulation 44 Visit) takes place once a month inside Residential Children's Homes. An independent inspector comes to visit the home to check if it is a safe place for children and young people to live. This person does not work for the government, police or social services. This visit is in line with Regulation 44 in the The Children's Homes (England) Regulations 2015. When the inspector visits, they want to make sure that where you live is safe, and provides a healthy, happy environment for you to thrive in. They will also make sure that your wishes and feelings are being listened to and that there are meetings happening within the home for you to have your say.
  • What happens after a Regulation 44 visit?
    You can contact the Independent Visitor by phone, text message or an email, if you forgot to say something during their visit. You can also do this if you would prefer not to give feedback in person. The visitor will leave their contact information with the staff so that you can get in touch with them if you want to. The independent inspector will then use all of the information they have collected during their visit to write a report about your home. This will be passed to Ofsted and your home's managers so they can see what they do well, and where they need to make improvements.
