About us

What we do

We provide residential care within a safe and secure, therapeutic environment. We give children access to the specialist services they need to help them recover from difficult life experiences.

We use a relationship-based approach to supporting children. We provide a safe environment to help them improve emotional stability and behavioural control.

Swanwick Lodge statement of purpose

Our aims

We aim to help each child make sense of their life experiences and regain a sense of worth and value – using therapeutic services. We want to help each child maximise their life chances.

To do this we provide quality education, and promote good physical and emotional health and wellbeing.

We work with the underlying causes of harmful behaviours to reduce the child's risk of harming themselves or others.
