Our well-run homes and high adult to child ratio ensures that all the children’s emotional and physical needs can be met and without compromise. The main positive of working for ATC is our goal to integrate all children back into their families or foster care and that we are not happy to be another staging post in a childhood and adolescence spent in care. Night Carer – Joined 2019
