Children’s Care / 16+ Provision

Supported Accommodation for Young People Aged 16+

At Anchor Community, we believe every young person deserves the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their background or challenges. Our Ofsted-registered supported accommodation for young people aged 16 and over in the UK is built on a foundation of respect, safety, and aspiration.

We provide a high-quality home environment where young people are encouraged to explore their potential, build confidence, and develop essential life skills. Our experienced care team nurtures emotional wellbeing and independence, offering consistent support in a stable, family-style setting. We understand that setbacks are part of growth and we see every challenge as a chance to learn, adapt, and move forward with purpose.

Our Commitment to Safety and Support

At Anchor Community, safeguarding is at the heart of everything we do. Our 16+ supported accommodation services meet all Ofsted standards, with clear policies in place to protect the wellbeing of every young person in our care.

All staff are fully trained in safeguarding, trauma-informed practice, and de-escalation techniques, and undergo enhanced DBS checks. We work in partnership with local authorities and care professionals to create safe, structured, and responsive environments where young people feel respected, protected, and understood.

Our New Children’s Home – Coming Soon

We’re excited to be developing a new Ofsted-compliant children’s home designed to provide a safe, stable, and nurturing environment for younger residents. This new space will reflect the same person-centred values that guide all our supported accommodation services.
