Illustrated by one of our extraordinary young people.
Pebbles exists to nurture and develop, so that any given young person welcomed into our care will flourish.
We ensure all young people experience a sense of family and are given the support to learn within a safe and therapeutic environment. We insist upon a trauma informed practice from all of the team, to ensure a healing and empowering experience for young people.
We promote a sense of partnership with family, professionals and all those who will support the journey to a positive destination for each young person.
We have solo home and dual home offerings, and three or four bed services which promote a family dynamic and wholesome environment, allowing young people to develop positive relationships and integrate within real life social settings.
Every learner is different and requires and deserves a bespoke package to meet their needs. Only a small setting with dedicated staff and an ethos of relational practice can facilitate the progress our young people need.
Our therapeutic approach is underpinned by the principles of Therapeutic Parenting. This means we build safe relationships that have high levels of structure and high levels of nurturing care.
We are driven in our pursuit to protect every young person in our care from harm, to keep them safe and support them in fulfilling their potential.

Pebbles are amazing, understanding and never let us down.
Truly loving people.
This is where the voices of our young people are heard and the stories of positive outcomes for the most vulnerable young people in our society.
These are biological requirements for human survival and the first that need to be met e.g. air, food, drink, shelter, clothing, warmth, sleep.
Personalised and responsive mental health support for young people and an informed strategy to develop resilience for future living.
The need for security and safety become salient in the care of young people. They want to experience order, predictability and control in their lives. These needs can be fulfilled by the care home family, educators and society.
Tackling emotional security, health and wellbeing, freedom from fear and social stability.
Understanding the social needs and feelings of belonging for a young person. The need for interpersonal relationships motivates behaviour.
Examples include friendship, trust and acceptance, receiving and giving affection and love. Along with affiliation and being part of a group (family, friends).
Esteem for oneself (dignity, achievement, mastery, independence) and the desire for reputation or respect from others (status, prestige).
The need for respect or reputation is most important for young people and precedes real self-esteem or dignity.
This refers to the realisation of a young person’s potential, self-fulfilment, seeking personal growth and peak experiences.
This is the desire to accomplish everything that one can, to become the most that one can be.
