Service Established in May 2021, Young UK Today is the realisation of a vision by a dedicated team of proven and passionate care and support providers with nearly two decades of expertise in their chosen field of work. With a remarkable history of empowering the most vulnerable children and young people, in Supported Accommodation, our founders and management team have been career long champions of positive change in the lives of those facing emotional and learning disabilities (LD) and complex needs. We've always believed that early support can change the course of a young person's life. Having seen countless journeys through the care system, we recognised a need for a more nurturing, holistic approach. Our first established home, Dove Tree House was born from this vision, and we are committed to offering unwavering support to children and young people aged 8-17, providing them with a stable and loving environment within which to flourish and grow. Children and young people placed in residential care are often admitted during their teenage years, a trend that continues to prevail in the UK. A significant proportion of these children and young people have undergone multiple placements, including various foster care experiences. It is their complex needs, often rooted in childhood trauma, in mental health, emotional, and behavioural challenges that necessitate specialised care and support. Government statistics underline a persistent issue; a notable percentage of these young people are placed in care due to experiences of abuse or neglect. The instability in their living arrangements is highlighted by the fact that a similar percentage have lived in five or more different placements, exacerbating their vulnerability and complex needs. A rising trend is the increased focus on their educational requirements. A significant portion of these children, a figure that is currently under review, have special educational needs, emphasising a critical area for enhanced support and resources. At the heart of our vision for Dove Tree House is the unwavering commitment to empowering both staff and children through trauma-informed approaches. We believe that understanding and addressing the impacts of trauma is foundational to fostering an environment of healing, growth, and empowerment. It's not just about care but about enabling each child and team member to navigate through their journey of recovery and development with resilience and confidence. The central tenant of our approach is rapport building, an essential element that enhances the quality of life and echoes the sanctity of a family home. In such a nurturing environment, every interaction is imbued with respect, dignity, and understanding, laying the groundwork for the holistic achievement of our outlined goals. At Dove Tree House, the safeguarding of children and young people is paramount. It is embedded in every aspect of the care we deliver to the children and young people that live with us.
