Guided Growth is a specialist 24-hour semi-independent home, that provides support and accommodation to looked after children and care leavers aged between 16 and 25 years of age. We provide a safe, nurturing environment, ensuring that young people have the home life that is so essential to their development. Guided Growth promotes the building of healthy relationships, independence, strengthening of core living skills and empowering young people in their ability to transition into adulthood so that they can begin their journey on the road of life.

​

We currently operate one Ofsted Registered and Regulated Children’s Residential Care Home gaining valuable life and independent living skills. This includes life skills such as: managing their home, weekly money, healthcare, emotional and behavioural needs, education and training, legal/law and social awareness e.g., housing, voting, equality, LGBTQ+. This is required to ensure they build resilience to cope with life now and in the future.   

 

In addition, we offer work experience opportunities insights to some fields of employment i.e., Mechanics which include an Apprenticeship.

​

We ensure that our young people are supported effectively, our Supported Living services are in Croydon. Our goal is to offer high-quality care and person-centred approach in a therapeutic setting so that our young people can flourish and get better results. Our facilities are comfortable and well-maintained so that our young people feel at home away from home - happy and safe.
