About Edwin Therapeutic Unit
Therapeutic residential care at Edwin Therapeutic Unit supports young people and adults with learning disabilities, mental health needs or eating disorders. Its work focuses on complex cases requiring structured therapeutic support and a pathway towards greater independence.
The wider service describes placements planned with local authorities, social workers and families, using attachment, trauma-informed and cognitive behavioural approaches. A multidisciplinary team delivers personalised support across a pathway that can begin in childhood and continue into independent adulthood. Edwin Therapeutic Unit therefore combines residential care with therapeutic practice and planned progression.
