Consistent care
More focused
Peaceful area
Isola is a small home on the outskirts of Colchester. Its rural setting offers the space for our young people to relax and grow. Our team is a close-knit unit, and seeing the same faces more regularly allows better relationships with the young people. We use some psychodynamic practices to help our young people understand why they feel the way they do, and our carers focus on attachment to build strong foundations and restore self-belief.
Please send referrals to info@shalamarchildren.co.uk
Isola is a spacious home with large outdoor areas and multiple communal rooms. It only hosts 4 young people, letting our residents make the most of that amount of space.
While we would like the home to be open for any and all who need it, we find that not mixing sexes leads to a much more settled home. Therefore, Isola will only be accepting male referrals.
Goats, chickens, rabbits, and cats are kept on the premises, which young people can interact with if they choose. There is also an opportunity for young people to keep their own small pets.
Isola is visited regularly by our therapist, who provides monthly reports to help both us and our young people keep a better current understanding of their minds and their needs.
With frequent training and advice updates, our carers are always using the best methods, both in general and in specific regard to our residents' individual requirements.
Isola is situated in a rural area with few neighbours and a quiet atmosphere. However, with a car it is within easy reach of all Colchester's amenities, and fast national travel routes nearby.
