Helping families build strong foundations

How we support families

We aim to offer each family a safe, supportive and nurturing environment in which they can grow. We work alongside each family with the help from a range of professionals to provide an individualised support package in line with their needs, abilities and background.

Our ambition is to support and empower each family to develop effective parenting skills, so that they can move on to become positive citizens in their own communities.

Families we've supported

“Lillie’s Lodge was so much more than just supported accommodation for me — it became a real home and a big family. From the moment I arrived, I felt cared for, supported, and never judged. The staff believed in me even when I didn’t believe in myself, and they helped me grow into a more confident and capable mother."

“Lillie’s Lodge was such a lovely first home for both my son and I. It was always clean, welcoming and the staff were so friendly, they made me feel so comfortable from the very start. I’ve made some really good friends during my time there, which i’ll always be grateful for.

“Lillie’s Lodge took good care of me, I highly recommend them. It was easy to communicate with Dionne, if I ever had any concerns, Dionne would be there for me. It’s a safe and supportive environment with lots of enjoyable activities for a new parent.”

“My experience at Lillie’s Lodge was nothing but positive. I didn’t spend a very long time there but was supported the whole way through and everyone was happy for me when I did then move on. It’s like a little family at the lodge and Dionne goes above and beyond for us all!"

“I feel Lillie’s Lodge gave me help, support and independence, plus boosted my confidence to be on my own with my daughter. Everyone was so kind to me and my daughter.”

“I am very grateful for my time at Lillie’s Lodge, as it helped me in a difficult time and also helped me gain independence for me and my little girl. I highly recommend this place.”
