Do you take private work?
We believe in our work being free at the point of access. This means that the vast majority of our work is funded. We work mostly with looked after children in Adoption or Fostering Services or families supported by chid in need or child protection plans.
On very rare occasions we have been known to take on private work, but often will do this via third parties.

In person or remote?
Our parenting work, NVR and Therapeutic Parenting, can be done online but DDP with the child/young person needs to be done in our therapeutic space in Troon, Camborne. Whist online has many positives; we would encourage parents to come to our therapy space as face to face has an edge on online work.
Where are you located?
We are fortunate to have found an accessible therapy space on the renovated King Edward Mine site in Troon, Camborne. Not only is the site stunning and dramatic, set in an expansive beautiful rural landscape with the ruins of an old engine house close by, but there is ample parking and a café on site too.
The address is:

Is the clinical space accessible?
Yes the therapy space is wheelchair accessible with disabled toilets available in the building. Should you have specific needs, please let us know.
How long is the wait if I’m funded by ASGSF?
The usual process is:
You talk with your lead professional who contacts us. We approach you and we agree to meet. At the meeting we talk about what brought you here and we share what we can offer. If we agree we will then write to your lead professional with our quote.
Your lead professional will then fill in the paper work and submit it to the Adoption Support Fund.
Currently, the Adoption Support Fund can take on average 6 weeks to process the application.
Once the funding is agreed, they will let your lead professional know, who will then let us all know and we will then find an agreeable time and date to start.
So, depending on the availability of everyone in the system, it can take 8 – 12 weeks between your professional asking us to work with you and our first therapy session.
