      I never thought I’d be in care. But if you don’t give it a go, you won’t know.  When James talks about work, he doesn’t start with job titles. He starts with people.  For 25 years, his career lived in sales and customer service—banks, telesales, property management, social media. Roles that demanded patience, persuasion and,…

      In many care environments, routines provide structure and stability. But it is often the moments that invite imagination, curiosity and shared participation that leave the deepest impact. Over the past three weeks, activities at The Bridge reflected this in practice. National Storytelling Week and Children’s Mental Health Week unfolded, creating a natural opportunity to explore…

      I have always believed that development should be intentional. For me, progressing in my career wasn’t just about stepping into new roles, it was about making sure I had the knowledge, qualifications, and confidence to lead effectively and support others to grow.  I joined Progress Care Solutions as a Deputy Manager, having already completed my…

      For National Apprenticeship Week, Jade who is the Registered Manager of Progress’ Henley Lodge, a children’s residential service in Coventry, shares her journey trajectory. I began my journey with Progress Care Solutions about six years ago, with a clear sense of purpose and an open heart. What started as a frontline role has grown into…

      National Apprenticeship Week is ultimately about people, their progress, their potential, and the futures they are building. National Apprenticeship Week begins today, and at Progress Care Solutions, it offers a moment to reflect on something that is embedded in everyday practice. Growth. Not just organisational growth, but personal growth. The kind that happens when people…

      When Chloe, Caitlyn and Mary talk about Spring Meadow, they don’t start with the building. They start with how it feels.  They talk about space. Real space. The kind that gives people room to think, to calm down, to try things without feeling rushed or crowded. For them, Spring Meadow is not just a new…

      Sometimes, the hardest part of applying for a new job isn’t the form or the interview. It’s figuring out whether a place actually feels right.  That’s why, this Friday, our adult supported living service, The Hub, is opening its doors for something a little different. We are kickstarting an informal drop-in session for anyone who’s curious about working at The Hub. No presentations. No…

      When Sean applied to work at Progress’ children’s residential service in Coventry, Henley Lodge, he wasn’t chasing a lifelong ambition to work in care. He was looking for something simpler, and harder to find — a job that felt meaningful, supportive, and worth the emotional energy it asked of him. Just a few months in, he says he’s found…

      On a Wednesday afternoon, Progress Fostering Live returned for its fourth edition with a conversation that was never meant to feel like a presentation. Hosted by Kirsty, Relationship Manager at Progress, the session invited viewers into an honest, open discussion about fostering, lived experience, and what it really takes to support young people with complex…

      Progress brought its foster carers, residential teams, senior leaders, and corporate staff together this year for its Annual Foster Carers’ Conference and Awards, a day that combined celebration with honest reflection on the realities of fostering today.  Held as a space to connect, learn, and recognise outstanding commitment, the conference also created room for open…

      When Tom first met the young person he would be fostering, it was over hot chocolate at a local café. the young person, aged 9, had spent most of his childhood in residential care after several placement breakdowns. But this meeting felt different, it was calm, unhurried, and full of possibility. Over the next few…

      “You are similar age as my son, but I don’t think my son can do what you are doing, you are a young and hardworking person.”  In the care sector where outcomes are usually measured in care plans and progress reports, there exists an unseen architecture. It is built of small, human moments—the shared silence over a cup of tea after a…
