Mission statement & purpose

At Century Lodge Limited, our mission is to enhance the quality of life and well-being of every child and young person in our care by delivering compassionate, person-centred, and high-quality support. We provide exceptional care and therapeutic residential services for children and young people aged 8 to 17 in a safe, nurturing environment where everyone is supported to grow, develop, and thrive. Guided by the PACE model, Playfulness, Acceptance, Curiosity, and Empathy, we are committed to understanding and responding to the unique needs of each young person. Through tailored care, holistic support, and a strong commitment to excellence, we strive to create a stable and empowering environment where children feel valued, respected, and able to reach their full potential.

Our Commitment

We are committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment where children and young people can thrive emotionally, socially, and academically. Our home provides a warm, family-like setting where each young person feels secure, valued, and cared for. We recognise that every child has unique needs, strengths, and experiences. Through a therapeutic approach guided by the PACE model, Playfulness, Acceptance, Curiosity, and Empathy, we tailor our care and support to everyone. This enables us to provide the right level of support to help young people build confidence, develop independence, and achieve positive outcomes. With compassion and dedication, we empower young people to make informed choices, navigate everyday challenges, and grow into fulfilled, resilient individuals.

Our Accomodation

Our supported living home is designed to offer a welcoming, safe, and homely environment. Each young Adult has their own private bedroom, and communal areas are provided for social interaction. The homes are equipped with necessary amenities, including kitchen and laundry facilities, to encourage the development of independent living skills.

The homes are situated in communities that offer access to local amenities such as schools, healthcare services, recreational facilities, and public transport.

We have ensured that our home is a safe, secure, and a happy place to live by:

Ensuring the physical environment adheres to all Health and Safety regulations, while empowering our young people to raise any concerns with their landlord if these standards are not met.

Providing each young person with their own front door key, unless there are documented and agreed-upon reasons indicating that it is not in their best interest. Such decisions will be made transparently and with the individual’s well-being as the priority.

Maintaining robust policies and procedures to safeguard young people from all forms of abuse, with regular audits to ensure compliance, effectiveness, and continuous improvement.
