About The Children

Cornerstone wants to improve the future for children who have often suffered abuse and neglect, who have been removed from their birth family and who cannot return to live with them.

The children we place are usually over eight years old and have special needs. Some have a disability whilst others display challenging behaviour.

Each child and young person is unique. Each one has suffered trauma and needs the love and skilled help of a caring family who will accept and love them for ‘who they are‘. Within the security of a loving home, the child will ‘test‘ whether the family really cares and it takes many years before they will dare to believe, and to accept, that they are loved and wanted. Only then will they begin to grow and develop to the best of their ability.

How We Help
Working together as a team, we are committed to helping each child to reach his potential. To this end we provide a high level of support and high quality training to our carers and we employ a play therapist to work directly with the children.


This is great!


Family is good!
