Starley Hall is a special place where young people can grow in confidence. We believe that all young people want to manage better, and with careful and enthusiastic help from adults can grow in confidence.
We know that everyone has a different set of needs, which we will do our best to meet. Some young people stay with us, and go home regularly. For others this is not possible; sometimes the choice is not to go home as much. Some young people might attend our school or college and live in one of our smaller houses.
- You will be the centre of our work. Although every young person is different we know that young people make good friends at Starley.
- Helping and understanding each other is very important
- Adults are friendly and are experienced in managing times when you might be upset. They understand that some young people have experienced very difficult times and need special help.
- You can enjoy yourself. We want you to take part in school and activities and learn new things.
- You will be made to feel welcome. We will work hard to make sure you can start off well, and feel safe.
- You will have your own room
- Houses vary in size. Two houses at Starley Hall have 5 or 9 young people respectively.
- Tall Trees and No 76, houses for 3 or 4 young people are in local towns and these provided more chances to be involved in their local community.
- Planning ahead is important so we can make sure we get things right for you. We will whenever possible involve you in any planning and any discussions about you. As you know there are times when lots of other adults are involved. We will do all we can to make sure your voice is heard.
- There is a lot more information on other pages in this site.
