Kingsbury House provides residential care to vulnerable children and young people with complex emotional, behavioural, developmental, and mental health difficulties.  The home can accommodate a maximum of three children and young people aged from 9 up to the age of 18 years, both male and female.  Young people can remain beyond the age of 18 years, but not beyond their 19^th birthday, on the condition that there is a Pathway Plan detailing their transition which has been agreed with the relevant Local Authority and that the home complies with the ‘wholly or mainly’ guidelines issued by OFSTED . The low number of residents ensures that each child receives a high level of staff supervision and support to meet individual need.
