There are a number of stages to the admissions process at Willowdene Farm.

You will need to ensure that you fit the profile of a resident, and do not fall under any of the exclusions. If you qualify for consideration for a placement, you will need to approach your worker to progress your application, because Willowdene farm does not accept self referrals.

You will need to formally apply by submitting a referral form. If it is possible to progress your application, your worker will need to carry out a needs-led assessment and, based on the information provided, you will then be offered an interview. If you are successful at the interview stage, your worker will need to secure funding for your place, after which you will be offered a placement and a firm start date.

While this may seem a complex process, it is actually much more straightforward than it appears, and Willowdene Farm’s staff will always be on-hand to offer assistance should you require.
