Our Identity
Firefly is a trauma-informed outreach alternative provision supporting children and young people who are struggling to engage in education due to social, emotional, and mental health needs.
We work flexibly within schools and the community, creating safe, relational spaces where young people can rebuild confidence, feel understood, and reconnect with learning at their own pace. We work in Warwickshire, Northamptonshire, Leicestershire, Coventry, Oxfordshire and surrounding areas
"Our work is rooted in trauma-informed and relational practice, drawing on DDP principles."
