Our Approach at Rise Above Care

​

Specialist residential care where connection, consistency, and compassion come first.

At Rise Above Care, we work in partnership with Local Authorities and other professional organisations to provide high-quality, specialist 24-hour residential care for children and young people. Our homes offer flexible staffing arrangements and the ability to support multiple occupancies—allowing us to tailor our care to meet individual needs.

​

Child-Centred, Relationship-Focused

​

Our experienced and dedicated team place children and young people at the centre of everything we do. We believe that every young person deserves the opportunity to feel safe, valued, and supported—giving them the best possible chance to thrive.

We embed the PACE model (Playfulness, Acceptance, Curiosity, Empathy) across our homes to help young people:

• Build safe and trusting relationships

• Form emotional connections

• Develop a strong sense of security and belonging

At Rise Above Care, we firmly believe in connecting before correcting. We understand that young people respond best when cared for by people who are genuinely interested in their welfare, take the time to understand them, and provide consistency and emotional safety.

​

Therapeutic, Personalised Care

​

We identify and respond to the individual needs of each child or young person in our care by developing person-centred care packages. These care plans:

• Reflect the young person’s placement plan goals

• Set achievable targets for personal and emotional growth

• Are delivered through a multi-agency approach, ensuring the involvement of all relevant professionals

We provide regular updates and reports to professionals, supporting a “team around the child” model that keeps communication open and consistent.

​

Working in Partnership

​

To support our young people in a truly therapeutic way, we work closely with a qualified psychologist who:

• Provides tailored 1:1 therapeutic support

• Oversees documentation and behavioural analysis

• Develops strategies based on trauma-informed theories and psychological insight

We also proactively seek out and engage with other relevant services and professionals to ensure the holistic needs of every child or young person are met.

We will never give up on making a difference in a child’s life.
