Unaccompanied Asylum Seekers
When working with Unaccompanied Asylum Seeking Young People (UASYP), a specialised support package is put in place based on the individual needs of the young person. This can be as simple as improving health and wellbeing, working on the young person’s stability and building up their supportive network by engaging the young person in GP services, dentists and educational providers, all of which might require an interpreter.
Our staff are experienced in supporting unaccompanied asylum seeking young people, tailoring support to address their specific needs. Examples include:
- Helping them stay healthy – e.g. support to register with a GP, dentist and optician (as required) and attend regular check-ups
- Support to manage the impact of past traumatic experiences that have led to them seeking asylum. Our staff are trained in Trauma-Informed Practice and all properties offer a therapeutic environment, helping young people to feel safe, secure and have space to process and recover from past trauma
- Support with food and clothing shopping – ensuring food is appropriate to any cultural dietary requirements
- Helping them become familiar with the local area and amenities (including public transport)
- Supporting young people to practice their chosen faith (where applicable), including access to places of worship and any religious items
- Support with legal, Home Office and other agency appointments to progress their asylum claim
- Supporting the young person’s language needs, including accessing interpreter services and using resources such as Google translate on a tablet to ensure they are able to express their views and wishes
- Supporting the young person’s language needs, including accessing interpreter services and using resources such as Google translate on a tablet to ensure they are able to express their views and wishes
- Respecting any cultural events or celebrations that are important to the young person and ensuring they have opportunities to observe these
Implementing Tailored Practices
We use proactive and reactive strategies to guide our team members to avoid conflict with each person we support. We provide our staff with mandatory and specialist training in PROACT-SCIPr-UK to ensure that we focus on providing tailored support.
Often, by making small changes to the physical environment or the way support is offered, we can help people take more control of their lives.
Origins of Positive Behaviour Support
PBS was developed in the 1980’s following concerns about unsympathetic care-giver techniques for those who have a learning disability.
The PBS model looks at bringing about a quality of life improvement (QoL).
QoL is defined as the degree to which individuals experience personal well-being in terms of participation in valued activities and settings, physical health, and overall satisfaction with their surroundings and relationships
Promoting Positive Behaviour Support
We’re here to meet your needs and provide trained support workers with all mandatory and specialist training in PBS and PROACT-SCIPr. Our support workers ensure continuity of care for the people requiring support.

Quality of Life
QoL is defined as the degree to which individuals experience personal well-being in terms of participation in valued activities and settings, physical health, and overall satisfaction with their surroundings and relationships
Behaviour Support Plan
BSP sets out the support required to help someone achieve a good quality of life (QoL). What is needed to achieve a quality of life, and what that looks like for each of us, will be different because we all have different needs.
