Aseda House

Aseda House is a Semi-Independent Supported Living Accommodation which supports Children in Care and Care Leavers who are aged 16 – 24 years.

We help transform lives through our services by taking a holistic approach, whilst empowering young people to lead more fulfilled and meaningful lives. We believe that each person is an individual and we work with them so they can feel safe, secure and inspired to pursue their dreams. 

Our principles are based on:

  • Empathy and respect
  • Quality of care and achieving best outcomes for young people 
  • Involvement of young people in decision making and in the design and delivery of services
  • Helping young people to successfully transition into adulthood

Aims and Objectives

At Aseda House, our objective is to provide the best possible care and support for the young people we work with. To enable us to achieve the highest standards possible we will:

  • Provide a house which young people can be proud of and make them feel at home.
  • Provide a safe environment in which young people can be encouraged to develop physically, socially, intellectually and help them acquire the skills to achieve and move into independent living whilst giving them the opportunity to develop their personal identity and accept responsibility for their own actions.
  • Promote the independence of young people at all time and encourage them to care for  themselves by offering a high level of emotional support and practical help in health and educational/employment issues, cooking, budgeting and household tasks.
  • Ensure that all staff receive ongoing training, support and guidance to enable them to support the young people to the best of their ability. Our semi-independent homes are staffed 24-hours by a member of our highly-trained team. The level of support provided will be increased or decreased as required and in consultation with the placing authority to meet individual needs.

Admissions Process

When considering referrals, we will always prioritise meeting both the needs of the young person referred and of those already in placement. We will make every effort to appropriately match any young person. Referrals are managed in such a way as to ensure minimal disruption to the young person referred, the young people already in placement, staff and the general running of the home.

We aim to respond to all referrals within a 24-hour period, please email [email protected]
