Guiding Growth offers independent investigation services for children’s homes, providing an impartial and thorough approach to resolving serious incidents, complaints, or safeguarding concerns. We ensure investigations are conducted with professional integrity, full compliance with statutory guidance, and a clear focus on the welfare of children and young people.

Our investigators bring extensive sector experience and a sound understanding of regulatory frameworks, including Working Together to Safeguard Children and Ofsted expectations. Our service includes: Initial scoping and terms of reference, confidential interviews and evidence gathering, clear, comprehensive reports with findings and recommendations, and support in addressing identified concerns and implementing action plans.

By commissioning an external, independent investigation, providers demonstrate transparency, accountability, and a commitment to continuous improvement in safeguarding and care standards.
