Arnfield Care is an independent provider of high-quality residential care for young people age 11 to 17 whose circumstances and complex needs challenge local authority services, and where crisis in their lives may also be a factor.
We have been working with young people since 1997 in the beautiful High Peak area of Derbyshire with its close proximity to a wide range of social, educational and leisure facilities and good transport links to nearby towns and cities.
At our children's homes we provide placements tailored to meet the individual needs of children and young people and the requirements of their placing authorities.
Our care covers a range of flexible options from short term respite and intensive crisis intervention work, through to longer periods in care leading to potential return home with family or a supported move towards independent living in the community.
