Welcome to Budwood
BudWood Limited is a private company that provides accommodation and support to young people. We offer provision of regulated and unregulated homes dependant on the needs and ages of the young people.
Our homes cater for young people ranging in age from 12 – 18 years. Young people who live in a BudWood home may have needs associated with emotional and behavioural difficulties, and may have experienced loss, trauma and abuse.
Specifically we work with a broad range of complex needs, which include:
- Social and emotional difficulties
- Attachment Disorder
- Criminal exploitation
- Child sexual exploitation
- Substance misuse
Young people are usually placed in Budwood from direct from local authorities referrals and placements include:
- Residential short or long term respite placements for families
- Full placement care for young people who are unable to live with their families
- Emergency placements if the initial assessment confirms suitability and ensures the needs of young people can be met by the staff team.
The aim of the service is to provide young people with a stable comfortable home, where they will be receive high levels of support and guidance to keep them safe and help them learn and develop the necessary skills to enable them a smooth and successful transition to independence and adulthood. Therapeutic input is integral within the support services provided by BudWood – all staff are trained in ‘developmental trauma’ and therapeutic parenting.

Support & Services
BudWood provides young people with 24-hour support. At least one member of staff will be available at all times in the home.
Support is delivered by a staff team who have undertaken training in therapeutic parenting, caring for a child with an attachment disorder, as well de-escalation and managing behaviour. We recognise that the majority of young people referred to the service will have experience loss, possible previous placement breakdowns with foster parents and had adverse childhood experiences. They will need trained staff who are responsive, calm and accepting.
The staff team is provided with clinical supervision from a qualified therapist in trauma and attachment.
