If you're in the property world you have probably heard of Dhanecha, and Wilson, but you may never have heard of Nick Barnett, CEO of the Caldecott Foundation and a qualified social worker with decades in children's social care. All three have written forewords to Supported Living 101.
This book sits at the crossroads of supported living, children's residential care, and property.
Nick brings deep, credentialed authority from inside children's social care. Dillon brings his own experience of supported accommodation through Purposeful Property Project. Katy brings her knowledge of property investing, and the personal, human closeness of someone who's mentored me directly.
Leading the testimonials is Sarah Naish, one of the founders of therapeutic parenting in the UK. Sarah brings decades of hands-on experience running therapeutic children's homes herself, and the credibility of having built the very framework so many carers now rely on.
This isn't a book I've thrown together hoping it lands well. Every page comes from knowledge and experience I've spent years accumulating, in property, in planning, in fostering, and in my own family's life. That's not something I'm asking you to take on trust. It's been checked and vouched for by genuinely respected voices in their own fields, people with no reason to put their name to something that didn't hold up.
Thank you Katy, Sarah, Nick and Dillon, your support means the world to me π
