A Bit About Us

At Opus Care, we provide high-quality care for some of society’s most vulnerable children. While we are not yet Ofsted registered, we are committed to offering bespoke, child-centered care packages that prioritize both quality and value for money. Our homes, once registered, will aim to achieve strong Ofsted ratings, similar to the majority of homes in the sector.

At Opus Care, we operate three-bedroom homes designed to provide personalized and attentive support for each child. Each home is staffed with a 2:1 support ratio, meaning there are two staff members available to support each child, ensuring individualized care and supervision. This setup allows us to cater effectively to each child’s unique needs while maintaining a high level of attention and support.

Expert Assistance

Deliver confidential and nonjudgmental support, and facilitate access to counseling or therapy services as required.

Activity Programmes

Based on individual preferences and behaviors, we tailor activities such as bowling, swimming, gym workouts, cinema outings, trampoline parks, and fairs.

Therapeutic Journaling

Thoughts shape actions. Our mindset and behaviors influence our emotions. While we recommend keeping a record of your thoughts as a therapeutic practice, it's not mandatory.

Outdoor Activities

To alleviate stress and anxiety, spending time outdoors especially in green spaces has been shown to effectively lower feelings of tension and anger.
