As a Suffolk County Council-approved Alternative Provision (AP) provider, we offer day placements on a weekly basis, which run on a 12- week term model. The placements offer hands-on activities in a therapeutic farm environment, alongside a comprehensive psychoeducational programme that equips our young people with the capability and confidence to manage their mental health challenges.

 

At The Nest our young people are supported and encouraged to become part of a safe and supportive community, build meaningful social connections and achieve personal growth.
