Support Worker

Did you know there are thousands of children across the country in incorrect or unsuitable care placements?

That’s thousands of children who do not have access to the care and support they need to thrive, thousands of children being let down repeatedly and thousands of children who are misunderstood and labelled as a ‘naughty child’.

Enter Protective Care Group, we exist to provide what we know is missing. We use a trauma informed approach, look past the challenging behaviour and recognise that beneath everything, there is a child who desperately needs the support our teams provide.

All the young people in our care receive :

• Robust, consistent, trauma informed care.
• Staff who won’t give up, no matter how challenging it gets.
• Truly person-centred care in solo placement environments.

To date, we have never given up on a young person, this has only been possible due to the hard work and dedication our teams show daily.
