EMPLOYEE'S OF THE MONTH 

 

🌟 Employee of the Month – Paul and Melissia  🌟

This month we’re proud to recognise two members of staff who have shown real consistency, dedication, and commitment in their homes.

Westby House – Paul

Paul continues to be a steady and reliable presence at Westby. He maintains strong relationships with the young people through simple consistency and follow-through, supporting them to take positive steps forward. Paul shows up, gets on with what needs to be done, and makes a real difference through his quiet commitment.

Ashley House – Melissa

Melissa has shown real strength and dedication during the transition into our brand new home at Ashley House. Throughout this period she has remained completely child-focused and committed to providing stability and consistency for the young people. Despite any challenges she has faced, she has continued to work hard, stay positive, and put the needs of the children first.

Thank you both for the work you do every day. Your reliability and dedication are valued across the company.

🎉 Congratulations to Westby House on Achieving a “Good” Ofsted Rating

We are proud to share that Westby House has been awarded a “Good” rating by Ofsted. This achievement reflects the dedication, passion, and professionalism of our team, who work tirelessly to provide a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment for every young person in our care.

This positive outcome recognises our strong focus on trauma-informed practice, individualised support, and creating a home where children feel valued, listened to, and empowered to thrive.

We would like to thank our staff, young people, families, and partner agencies for their continued trust and support. Together, we remain committed to building bright futures and delivering the highest standards of care. 

     THE JJ EFFECT 

Some of the Coastal Path Care team had the privilege of taking part in The JJ Effect  and what an experience it was.

The session was incredibly well presented, thought-provoking, and truly engaging from start to finish. Byron delivered powerful message around knife crime that left a real impact on everyone in the room. His ability to share lived experience in such an honest and meaningful way is something you can’t replicate in a textbook, it’s the kind of training that stays with you.

The feedback from staff has been overwhelmingly positive. This is exactly the kind of real, relatable input our sector needs. We couldn’t recommend it enough, The JJ Effect is the real deal.

Huge thank you to Byron Highton for your time, passion, and bravery in sharing your story. Lived experience is the most powerful form of education.

JM Training Academy 

We’ve had the pleasure of two full days of training with James Morris at JM Training Academy!

 

Our team participated in sessions covering Missing from Home, County Lines, and Drugs & Alcohol Psychosis. The training was fantastic, packed with practical strategies, high-quality resources, and insightful discussion.

Our staff have already benefitted hugely from the learning, gaining valuable knowledge and tools to enhance their practice and support the young people in our care.

 

As always, James delivered the sessions with energy, expertise, and a wealth of knowledge — a truly engaging and impactful experience for all.

A huge thank you to James and JM Training for their continued support in helping us deliver safe, trauma-informed care.
