Autonomy is an important feature of what we do, it is okay for a young person to say 'no' we do not force or impose, we find a way that works for them. The young person is at the heart of everything we do and we listen to them and their family.

Working together with all stakeholders to support transitions, that we understand can be difficult. We can support young people back into school or into a new setting to ensure the best possible outcome.
