ABOUT US

Bull Care Services specialise in short-term respite support for 11 - 16-year-olds. Our aim is to create a safe and calm environment in which children are kept engaged whilst simultaneously learning key life skills. We are dedicated to supporting young people in developing social, communicative, emotional and behavioural skills in a safe environment. The goal is the re-set and recharges before moving on to long-term placements.

We run activity-based programmes which include both indoor and outdoor activities. We focus on cognitive behavioural therapy techniques to promote positive change.

Our Respite service offers a 2:1 support ratio (in some cases a 3:1 support ratio) of highly experienced professionals, providing children and young people where possible with a much-needed respite break.

We are dedicated to providing the highest level of support. As such, our support workers are qualified to NVQ Level 2 and above in Healthcare and/or Health and Social Care. Once employed our team undergo further training in their specialist field. Our operatives are MAPA trained and certified. You can learn more about our training and qualifications here.

We currently have 3 fully catered mobile provisions and 3 apartments offering safe accommodation. You can learn more about our provisions here.

Respite support is an ideal short-term solution and aid in creating a progressive and stable environment.

OUR APPROACH

Interaction with Animals

Interacting with animals has been proven to help with social skills. Animal-assisted activities help improve social skills and encourage emotions of empathy and passion. Animals can also create a calming environment. We encourage supervised interaction with goats, dogs and horses at our provisions.

Outdoor Activities

To help reduce feelings of stress and anxiety. Being outdoors, particularly in green spaces, has proven positive effects in encouraging a reduction in stress and anger.

Journaling and Thought Recording

Thoughts become actions. The way we think and what we do affects how we feel. We encourage thought recording as a way of therapy but this is not obligatory.

  • bowling
