Palm Grove
We have built a reputation on our ability to support children in Palm Grove through a holistic approach that addresses the key factors influencing the child’s wellbeing. Palm Grove works with the child to set goals, identify what needs to change for them to achieve positive outcomes, and prepare for the next stage in their lives.

Kevin Orme
Kevin has worked in the healthcare sector for the past 8 years, initially supporting young people with learning disabilities and autism. However, for the past 4 years Kevin has changed focus to concentrate solely on Children’s Residential Homes supporting children with EBD (Emotional, Behavioural Difficulties) with a focus on attachment, trauma and therapeutic parenting.
Kevin currently holds a NVQ Level 3, in supporting children and young people and is working towards his Level 5 in Leadership and Management, with an estimated completion date of December 2023. He also has a qualification in ‘The Institution of Occupational Health and Safety’ (IOSHH).
Before joining Sure Steps, Kevin was managing a solo-placement home, which throughout his time at the home was able to maintain a ‘Good’ Ofsted rating throughout.

The home is situated in a relaxed, friendly community, with 2 bedrooms for children, a bathroom with a toilet, shower and a sink, a main lounge and dining area which leads into the kitchen. This leads into the back garden which has lots of space for barbeques, games, lunch outside or simply to relax. The office is at the back of the home and next to the lounge, this will also consist of the staff sleep-in room.
Amenities
Local transport links are close by, with bus routes into neighbouring towns such as Speke, Widnes, and Liverpool. There are transport links to take you to local Cinemas, youth clubs, sports centres, ice-skating and bowling.

The home can accommodate up to two children between the ages of 8-17 years on admission, with mental health, emotional and behaviour difficulties, who require relevant support from a trained and experienced staff team. Palm Grove offers short, medium and long-term placements for children who need support currently in their lives, through services delivered based on nurturing informed practice.
