Raising youngsters in an environment that encourages positive growth is essential when it comes to helping them to flourish and achieve their full potential. They need to feel secure and supported in order to experience joy and express themselves without judgement. Horizons Residential Care is committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment for all its children and young people. In so doing, it has won the hearts and minds of so many residents, as well as garnering much in the way of external recognition and accolades. The story of Horizons Residential Care began in 2013 with the establishment of Westhaven House in Edinburgh, the company’s first care home location. It was impressively successful, prompting the company to expand its services further still, which it did in 2015 by opening a second venue in Edinburgh, Hillview House. Shortly after, Braeside House in Fauldhouse, West Lothian, and Glendale House in Gorebridge, Mid Lothian appeared on the scene, in 2016 and 2017 respectively. During 2022, in view of increased demand for its services, Horizons opened three new services: Two new Houses in Edinburgh – Newhaven and Westhaven Lodge and a new House in Fauldhouse – Bonnieview. This makes up the seven houses of the company’s comprehensive support system. Each house provides excellent care standards. Horizons have extended their facilities by providing a self-contained cottage in Fauldhouse– Braeside Cottage for single placement. A similar facility will be provided at Gorebridge – Glendale House which will open in 2025. Our sister Company Horizons Residential Childcare UK Limited plans to open a house in Berwick-upon-Tweed in 2025 to provide therapeutic care to children and young persons predominantly from England. Horizons Residential Care’s first to be launched service, Westhaven House in Edinburgh, is very popular amongst service users. The lovely villa accommodation is situated within the historic suburb of Corstorphine, and provides 3 recently upgraded ensuite bedrooms, offering comfortable living spaces for residents. It’s also ideally located near to all the major facilities offered by the city of Edinburgh. The residential home provides bespoke therapeutic support that is particularly aimed at users who have been subjected to challenging life experiences such as trauma. It aims to cultivate relationships, and nurture an environment that feels homely and supportive. Hillview offers a 3-bed bungalow sited in Drumbrae, Edinburgh. It also boasts a separate and newly renovated self-contained cottage, designed to accommodate semi-independent residents, whilst still ensuring continuing care is close at hand. The basis of much of the work Horizons focusses on involves providing a nurturing approach to young people, and is designed to create positive, long-lasting relationships. It aims to build resiliency in users, helping them to develop independence and become an integral part of their community. Braeside in West Lothian is another 3-bed house, which like the other Horizons locations provides therapeutic support packages for children and young people. It promotes attachment-forming, with a traumainformed approach that has proven effective in helping staff and young people to develop strong and trusting relationships. Glendale House in the village of Gorebridge, Midlothian, differs slightly from the other Horizons residences in that the beautiful and substantial stone villa also features extensive walled gardens. The house also contains a large lounge, dining room, games room, and garden play area, in addition to its three generous bedrooms with ensuite facilities. It offers the same therapeutic support packages as the other Horizons accommodations do, focused on helping children and young people who have encountered trauma and other challenging experiences in their lives. The team at Glendale House, and indeed all the staff at Horizons, are honoured to stand alongside the young people in their care. Each Horizons residential Care house has worked hard to establish community link-ups with local facilities such as libraries, leisure centres, youth groups, sports clubs, and other groups that might be of interest to young people. It is keen for its service users to be able to participate in a wide range of leisure activities, catering to each and every individual’s personal interests and preferences, allowing them to thrive and flourish.
