United Children
We are a trusted children’s residential home in Staffordshire, UK, providing a safe, nurturing environment and professional support for children’s well-being.
A United Mission
At United Children, we’re united in our dedication to helping young people heal, grow, and embrace brighter futures.
We sincerely believe that by helping young people build a hopeful and realistic future, we empower them to effectively navigate and overcome challenges in the present. In doing so, we also lay the foundation for their continued growth and resilience.
Our trauma-informed care team, paired with an outdoor-led approach, creates a nurturing space where emotional wellbeing and personal development are at the heart of everything we do.
Inside Our Home, Little Ash Farm
Our home, Little Ash Farm, is a spacious yet cosy former family house set in a peaceful semi-rural location. With a tennis court, grass football pitch and bike tracks - not to mention plenty of wildlife and the development of an allotment - we encourage young people in our care to make the most of the great outdoors.
Super Sports
Our children have access to a tennis court, football pitch and bike tracks - helping improve both mental and physical health, social skills and problem-solving skills.
Game On - Or Chill Out
We have a dedicated games/chill room with a foosball table and games - plus books, crafts and a cosy corner for winding down and chilling out.
Wondrous Woodlands
We're lucky to be surrounded by woodlands - acres of them! Our peaceful, leafy setting makes the perfect environment for nurture and healing.
Cosy Living Spaces
Each and every room has been designed with comfort in mind to help our children feel at home and at ease - from the kitchen to the living room and bedrooms.
