Referrals & placements

The right home for the child. Not simply an available bed.

Every referral begins with understanding the child — their needs, experiences, risks, strengths and what they need to feel safe and settled.

A warm, welcoming home environment for children

"The right home for the child. Not simply an available bed."

Commissioners and social workers can contact Mechex directly to discuss a placement. We carefully consider need, compatibility and the dynamics of the home before making a decision.

Because for us, a successful placement isn't about filling a vacancy. It's about giving a child somewhere they can feel safe, belong and begin to build their future.

How a referral works
01

First conversation

Share timescales, presenting needs, education status, risks and what a good outcome would look like for this child.

02

Matching

We consider the child, the household they would join, staffing, therapeutic capacity and whether we can genuinely keep them safe.

03

Welcome with a plan

If we can offer a place, the child meets a key worker, sees the home, and arrives with a plan that includes voice, education and family contact where safe.
