Our mission is to provide a safe, nurturing environment for children and young people upholding a warm welcome. We are committed to creating a strong community, a sense of belonging and an opportunity for children and young people to thrive. We will provide specialist care relative to the individual needs and experiences of the children, with the goal of helping them manage life experiences and transition into independence when they reach adulthood.

Elmside staff endeavour to have a systemic presence in the lives of the children and young people in our care. We believe the care we offer should be consistently and persistently demonstrating our values, to build strong bonds with our children and young people, in the hope they will feel they are always held in the forefront of our mind, whilst on their journey with us and beyond.
