Our Services
A Holistic approach to Care

BFFC provides residential placements for young people aged 13-17 years old, that require an individual, calm, homely environment. Whilst not only focusing on the interventions we use in house, but we also have a wide range of professionals that we work alongside, to provide the greatest outcomes for young people in our care.

Outdoor pursuits:

We encourage all young people to spend as much time as possible outdoors, in nature, taking part in activities that benefit their overall health and wellbeing. We work alongside local outdoor pursuits facilitators and use specific measures to measure outcomes for young people in care. We also take part in these activities for the fun of it!

Education:

We recognise that mainstream educational settings are not always what best suits the needs of our young people. We encourage and support young people to take part in education through mediums that may better suit their needs, such as iScoil and ASDAN. These programs encourage development at the young person’s case, celebrating small successes regularly and providing individual support to achieve goals.

Alternative Therapies:

At BFFC, we recognise that traditional talking therapy, whilst extremely beneficial, may not be for everyone. We work alongside local alternative therapists; from art and music therapy to equine assisted therapy, to find a therapeutic support that best supports that individual and create a program that is most beneficial to supporting their needs.

Occupational Therapy:

At BFFC, we have close working relationships with highly specialised Occupational Therapists, that specialise in Sensory Attachment Intervention (SAI). Young people benefit from taking part in a structured program of intervention, where the key focus is ‘Regulation.’

Community Engagement:

We encourage all of our young people to take part in local clubs and community projects, to encourage them to build connections with peers and the local community. We encourage this through membership with local sports teams, youth clubs and community incentives.
