One to One Sessions

1:1 Young Person/Keyworker Appointments

1:1 30 minute appointments are available for any young person who would like to talk over any concerns or worries that they have with an appointed keyworker. This will give the keyworker and young person an opportunity to look over and work through The Haven changemaker, consider the goals they would like to achieve from attending the Haven and build on being able to reach their full potential.

1:1 Parent Support Appointments

1:1 30 minute appointments are available with our Parent Support Worker. These appointments can be face to face within The Haven or online.

Both Young Person/Keyworker and Parent Support Appointments can be made by speaking to any member of the team to arrange a suitable day and time.
