THE SANCTUARY PROJECT
Ofsted Regulated Supported Accommodation
About Us
About The Sanctuary Project
We are an Ofsted regulated supported accommodation, providing accommodation and support for 16-25 year old children in care, or care leavers.
At The Sanctuary Project, we believe in supporting and nurturing young people, to help them to grow and develop the skills and confidence they need to live full lives. We know some young people need more support than others and have had difficult challenges in their lives to overcome. That is why all our services are based around you as an individual and what you want to achieve.

Mark and I are totally committed to each young person we support and will do everything we can to help each of them achieve their dreams. We love our work and feel extremely blessed to see our young people flourish and grow, and increase their skills and confidence.

Carly
I have worked within the Social Care sector for many years, as a Personal Assistant for Young People with disabilities. In 2011 I decided to study Social Work and I am now a qualified Social Worker. I have worked in a number of different areas, including Child Protection, Leaving Care, and Fostering. My passion is working with Young People and enabling them to fulfil their potential. I joined the team at The Sanctuary Project as the Project stood out to me as a place whereby the Directors and staff were genuine, focused, and passionate about providing person centred support to Young People.

Emily
Before coming to the Sanctuary Project, I studied for four years and achieved a First-Class Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology. Alongside this, I worked to support university students with a variety of physical, mental and learning difficulties to access their education, whilst maintaining their independence. I have also volunteered with many different services, such as the Prison Advice & Care Trust and local Family Centres. I absolutely love my job as I am very passionate about helping young people achieve whatever they set their minds to. I am extremely grateful to be part of the amazing team here at the Sanctuary Project.
Accommodations Manager
Tom
I have worked across the UK with young people in many different settings for 17 years. I gained a wealth of knowledge about how best to support vulnerable young people in this time, which I then brought to my role at The Sanctuary Project. Within my time here, I have gained various qualifications and have been given many opportunities to progress to the role I am in now. Whilst here, I have had the privilege to support various young people to reach independence and it has solidified for me that supporting young people to achieve their best is my calling.
I help with the running of The Sanctuary Project alongside the Directors and Manager. I have a Level 3 in Health and Social Care, ICT and Business Administration and Level 5 in Management and Leadership. I also do support work with the young people to help them reach independence. I thoroughly enjoy working at The Sanctuary Project and wish to help the young people achieve their goals and aspirations in life.
I have experience working with people with learning disabilities in both residential and community settings. I have a degree in social work and extensive experience of living and working with young people who are living in the care system. My passion is to see our young people reach their full potential and live in their own tenancies.
