To develop the Residential Care market in partnership with external providers -  ‘a local response to local needs’.

We are driven by the understanding that to care for young people, requires a partnership approach to care.

In Practice, this means we are keen to work with providers who wish to respond to our need for local residential care and young people services based in Essex (and the surrounding areas)

We would encourage any providers or people developing services wishing to work with Essex to contact us.
