Services To Children & Young People

At LifetrainUK, we are dedicated to improving the lives of children and young people. With over 25 years of experience, we understand that traditional therapy doesn't work for everyone, which is why we have developed a unique approach that prioritises engagement and uses the most advanced therapeutic techniques to promote stability in both placement and life.

Our therapeutic approach is person-centred, which means we tailor our interventions to suit the individual's needs. We use a range of techniques to ensure that each young person receives the right fit for them. We believe that therapy is not a one size fits all, and our approach reflects that.

Our interventions are underpinned by therapeutic approaches that have proven to be effective in helping children and young people overcome issues such as trauma, anxiety, depression, and behavioural challenges. Our methods are evidence-based and have been tried and tested, giving you the peace of mind that your child is receiving the best possible care.

If you're looking for a Therapeutic Youth Work training and development company that prioritises the well-being of children and young people above all else, look no further than LifetrainUK. Our unique approach and commitment to helping young people achieve stability and happiness make us the perfect partner for anyone seeking to invest in their child's future.

We use an assortment of approaches including drama, music, outdoor education, teambuilding exercises and art. Using these methods has proved invaluable in reactivating young people who have switched off from the formal learning environment.

LifetrainUK routes are embedded in Youth Work, and we use informal education to underpin all our approaches, please see curriculum below.

Informal Education underpins therapeutic response, at LifetrainUK we recognise that young people need to build resilience and a range of life-skills that will promote independence at 18. Within the therapeutic response the Youth Work Curriculum underpins interventions. It focuses on 5 core curriculum areas. They cover the major issues that young people face in their transition from childhood to adulthood.

Participation and inclusion.
Creativity and challenge.
Equality and diversity.
Health and wellbeing.
Personal and social development.

On Target Coaching

‘On Target Coaching’ for children is a structured and supportive process that helps young individuals to identify and achieve their goals, overcome challenges, and develop strong life skills and positive habits. It involves working with a qualified and experienced coach who helps children to explore their values, beliefs, strengths, and weaknesses, and then provides guidance and strategies to help them develop a clear vision for their future and act towards realising their aspirations. Some common areas of focus in life coaching for children include self-confidence, time management, goal setting, decision-making, communication skills, stress management, and emotional intelligence. The aim of On Target Coaching for children is to empower them to become self-reliant, resilient, and confident individuals who can successfully navigate the challenges of life and achieve their full potential.

Children’s Holidays & Residential Experiences

At LifetrainUK, we provide a diverse selection of residential experiences and holidays for children and young people. These encompass a range of activities including but not limited to multi-activity getaways, fishing expeditions, mindfulness and restorative spa trips, as well as Duke of Edinburgh’s Award and international expeditions.

As one of the Directors for a group of nine children’s homes we are privileged to work with LifetrainUK. Tash and Lisa are brilliant with the direct work they do with the children and run many projects for us, including the Duke of Edinburgh award. They are always creative and find new ways to engage our children and help them through some of the most challenging of times. They are caring, compassionate, motivational and always up for a new challenge.

Tash and Lisa also work with our staff members through training and coaching them to keep improving on practice. This support has been invaluable to us over the many years we have worked together.

We would like to thank Tash and Lisa for their ongoing and unwavering support, truly inspirational people with so much to give.

Keep doing what you do Life Train and let others keep benefiting from everything you do to help them.
