Make a ReferralRolling starts, year-round
Placements at Wild Minds Alternative Provision are referral only. The quickest way to start is to book a call with our team using the calendar below, and we will tell you honestly whether a placement is likely to be suitable.
What happens next
Referral received
We acknowledge within two working days and confirm what further information we need.
Suitability conversation
A call with the referrer, and where appropriate the family, to test fit against the pathways.
Visit and assessment
The young person visits a site; we complete a whole-person baseline across the five strands.
Plan, funding and start
An individual support plan and tier are agreed, funding confirmed, and a gentle start date set.
The process in full
From first enquiry to review meeting
Every referral follows the same route, so families and commissioners always know where things stand. Most placements begin with a half term trial, followed by a review with everyone involved.

Looking for 1:1 mentoring?
Wild Mind Well-Being CIC
Our sister company offers 1:1 mentoring sessions that families can book privately, without a referral. If a full placement is not what you need, this is often the right starting point.
