FRESH START CARE SERVICES LIMITED

Fresh Start Care Services Limited is a specialist provider of residential and therapeutic care for vulnerable children and young people throughout Ireland. Since its inception in 2001, the organisation has built a network of fully-registered residential care centres that are designed to meet the individual needs of each young person, rather than expecting them to fit a one-size-fits-all model. The service's resilience is reflected in an unplanned discharge rate of less than 5 per cent, underscoring the effectiveness of its person-centred approach.

The core of Fresh Start's offering is a comprehensive assessment framework that informs bespoke care packages, delivered in partnership with the Child & Family Agency (TUSLA) in the Republic of Ireland and the Northern Health & Social Care Trust in Northern Ireland. Clinical oversight is provided by a consultant psychiatrist, a clinical psychologist and a multidisciplinary team, ensuring that therapeutic and clinical best practices are embedded in everyday care. This dedicated, highly skilled staff group enables Fresh Start to create positive, creative interventions that support lasting outcomes for the children and young people they serve.
