Our services
At Lighthouse, we specialise in safeguarding, quality and compliance, and strategic interventions, supporting organisations in delivering the highest standards of care for children and young people. We help providers build strong safeguarding cultures, achieve regulatory compliance, and implement evidence-based interventions that enhance service quality and leadership effectiveness. From developing policies and frameworks to conducting audits, training teams, and guiding organisations through inspections, we tailor our approach to meet the unique needs of each provider. Our mission is to empower leaders and frontline teams to create safe, stable, and loving homes where children can thrive.
Safeguarding
We specialise in helping organisations build and embed a strong safeguarding culture that protects children, teams, and services from harm. Through tailored training, audits, and policy development, we support providers in ensuring safety and well-being are prioritised at every level, creating environments where safeguarding is fully integrated into daily practice.
Quality and Compliance
Quality and compliance are fundamental to high standards of care, ensuring services are safe, well-managed, and meet regulatory requirements. We help organisations embed best practices, strengthen governance, and maintain accountability, creating a culture of continuous improvement at every level.
We help organisations embed evidence-based therapeutic interventions and principles of love-led care to improve practice, safety, and outcomes. Through leadership development, training, and strategic planning, we strengthen teams, reduce risks, and create nurturing environments where children can thrive.

Director
Carla brings clarity to complex situations, always focusing on the young person’s experience. She identifies risks, supports managers in creating effective plans, and has delivered astounding progress recognised by regulators. Her warmth, honesty, and expertise build strong relationships, and I look forward to continuing our collaboration.
Managing Director
Lighthouse helped me implement new safeguarding procedures, including an RI safeguarding and risk register. Weekly meetings now allow us to evaluate high risks and identify patterns. This simple yet effective tool is a game-changer, promoting a positive safeguarding culture and enhancing our ability to protect young people.
Responsible Individual
I’m thrilled to share that Ofsted visited today, and we’ve fully met the compliance notice and requirements. The inspector was amazed at what we’ve achieved in just seven weeks and had no further recommendations. The homes remain rated good. This wouldn’t have been possible without your guidance—thank you!
