24hrCare Services Residential Division was established to respond to the increased demand of residential services needed for young people in care. 24hr Care Services Residential Division is committed to being the National benchmark for children’s residential services. We opened our first centre in August 2017 and we are fully committed to open more residential centres in the next 3- 5 years.

24hrCare Services Residential Division provides a therapeutic supported mainstream residential service for mixed gender between the ages of 13-17 who are experiencing emotional and behavioural difficulties, where previous placements such as foster or family living has broken down.
