Our Service
Care Hubz is a brand-new provision providing mid to long term residential care for children with emotional, behavioural difficulties and associated complex needs. All our children’s homes provide a safe environment in a local community that children and young people can call home, with adult staff who nurture, care, look after and look out for them.
A team staff member has the responsibility for ensuring that the environment of the home is maintained to a high standard. We aim to ensure that our house reflects that of a family home where young people feel safe, relaxed, and cared for in a non-institutionalised setting. Young people are also encouraged to use the kitchen for the preparation of food, helping them to develop their skills through weekly cook and eat sessions.
Our children’s homes look like any other home in a street and has all the facilities of a family home, furnished to a high standard of comfort and appearance.
We take pride in the way we care and create a home which is by creating a caring, loving, and fun environment. We manage this by doing lots of fun activities such as arts and crafts, cooking, and baking, playing games, watching movies, and listening to music. Broad Lane House is located close to local facilities with a wide range of shops. Close to transport links for both trains and buses which will provide the young person with flexible opportunities to access and experience a variety of activities and interests.
