A Loving Home, Not Just Residential Care
At Church View Children's Place, we believe that children deserve more than residential care – they deserve a loving home where they feel safe, valued, understood and supported to thrive.
Our dedicated staff team and leadership are passionate about making a genuine difference in the lives of children and young people. We take our role as professional parents seriously and are committed to providing love-led care, meaningful opportunities, consistent routines and individualised support that meets the unique needs of every child in our care.
Our purpose-built home can accommodate up to six children and young people aged 7–19 years with:
Autism Spectrum Conditions
Learning Disabilities
Behaviours that Challenge
Complex Needs
Associated Conditions
Why Choose Church View Children's Place?
As a small, owner-operated provider, we offer a level of consistency, flexibility and personal oversight that larger organisations often struggle to achieve. Decisions are made quickly, relationships are meaningful, and every child is known as an individual.
Our home has been thoughtfully designed to create an exceptional living environment where children can feel comfortable, develop independence and enjoy positive experiences every day.
Our Facilities Include:
🏠 Six spacious ensuite bedrooms
🎮 Dedicated gaming room
🕹️ Arcade room
🎬 Fully functioning cinema room
📚 Educational lounge
🧸 Multiple chill-out and relaxation spaces
🛁 Sensory bathrooms
🍽️ Large kitchen and dining area
🌳 Secure outdoor play areas
🎠 Bucket swing
🤸 Sunken trampoline
🚐 Dedicated vehicles for education, family visits, appointments and community activities
The size and layout of our home allow children to enjoy their own personal space while also benefiting from shared experiences and social opportunities.
Supporting Family Relationships
We recognise that some children may be placed a considerable distance from their families. Maintaining positive family relationships is incredibly important, and we are committed to supporting family time and contact arrangements wherever possible.
Our team works proactively to facilitate visits, transport and meaningful family engagement, regardless of distance, ensuring children remain connected to the people who matter most to them.
Preparing Children for Adulthood
Our aim is not simply to provide care today, but to equip children with the skills they need for tomorrow.
Through daily living opportunities, social development, education support and independence-building activities, we help young people develop transferable skills that will support them throughout adulthood.
We want every child who leaves Church View Children's Place to do so with greater confidence, resilience, independence and the tools they need to achieve their full potential.
Our BRAVE Values
Everything we do is guided by our BRAVE values:
B – Belonging
Creating a sense of home, security and connection where every child feels accepted and valued.
R – Respecting Difference
Celebrating individuality and recognising the strengths, needs and aspirations of every child.
A – Advocacy Through Love
Championing the rights, voices and best interests of children through compassionate and unwavering support.
V – Valuing Potential
Believing in every child's ability to grow, develop and achieve.
E – Enabling Growth
Providing opportunities, encouragement and experiences that help children flourish and reach their full potential.
Referrals
To maintain stability and minimise disruption for the children already living within our home, we do not offer emergency placements.
We welcome enquiries from Social Workers, Local Authorities and Commissioning Teams and invite professionals to contact us to discuss potential placements and the needs of the children they support.
We are a collaborative partner and work transparently with professionals to ensure every referral is carefully considered and every placement has the greatest opportunity for success.
Together, we can make a difference to the lives of children with Autism and disabilities.
