January 2016

We are delighted to announce that following a rigorous selection process, Hafan Saff has been awarded Level 1 provider status upon the new South and Mid Wales, 4Cs, Children and Young People Commissioning Framework. We are the youngest company to be awarded this status, an achievement we believe reflects the quality and commitment of our staff and service.

Our Leaving Care provision is now also operational. Ty Camlan will provide support on the path to independence, for 3 young people. The project will have 4 full time QCF 3 qualified staff and will provide a positive and aspirational environment, within which Young People will grow in confidence and learn how to plan for their futures. Ty Camlan will utilise a hub and spoke model in which Young People will progress when appropriate, into their own homes while still supported by familiar faces.

Each of our standard Residential Settings have a permanent staff team of 9, 80% of whom are, or will soon be qualified to QCF Level 3 or above. All members of the staff team are either already registered with the CCW, or are enrolled upon the CCW Induction Framework. Our staff teams have a wide range of skills and life experiences, which we believe make a positive contribution to the on-going support of the Young People entrusted to our care.

Our CSSIW Inspection Reports have been overwhelmingly positive. We are especially pleased by the comments from our Young People, Parents, Staff and Local Authority Partners, as they confirm we are creating a positive, child focused and supportive environment.

Both “The Oakland’s” and “Towy House” have implemented the necessary systems to safely accept “Same Day Referrals”.
