The Centre is a purpose built facility that offers secure provision for up to 76 young people who are remanded to secure accommodation or sentenced by the Courts to custody or who are serving civil orders. It is one of 3 Centres nationally commissioned by the Youth Justice Board. Healthcare needs are high with a large proportion of the young people suffering from emotional or mental distress, learning difficulty and / or neglect.

The responsibility for healthcare has been transferred to NHS England from the Youth Justice Board.

NHS England welcomes interest from organisations equipped to engage the young people in the Centre in addressing their often wide-ranging health needs.
