About Halliwell Homes Halliwell is a social enterprise offering “clinically informed practice” through the medium of education and residential care. Our Restorative Parenting® Recovery Programme is a therapeutic re-parenting programme which focuses on addressing the emotional, behavioural, social and developmental needs of the child. Halliwell has recently restructured as an Employee Ownership Trust meaning greater engagement opportunities for all employees in the improvement of the business as well as greater benefits and rewards when the business performs well. This also best enables Halliwell to deliver on its mission to improve the psychological well being of children in the looked after sector. The Restorative Parenting® Recovery Programme is an attachment-based, complex trauma-informed approach to treating childhood trauma. It is a time-limited programme that moves children aged 5-12 on entry through a process of recovery so that they can cope with a family environment, which is usually with long term foster parents. The Restorative Education Programme aims to provide the best quality of education and care for vulnerable children through a vibrant curriculum which fully prepares pupils for their future economic wellbeing and nurtures outstanding personal development. Clinically Informed Programme The Restorative Parenting® Recovery Programme is a pioneering approach to treating early childhood trauma. Its sole aim is to enable children to sustain a long-term family environment. At Halliwell we put all our effort into preventing children ‘bouncing’ around the looked after system and suffering the exponential negative impact that multiple placement breakdowns have on their psychological and physical health. When children enter our Programme they effectively start ‘therapy’ straight away. Our Programme is psychologically-informed at every step, from referral to long after a child transitions from us to their new home. We use an attachment-theory model.
