Moriah provides a secure, supportive environment with de-escalation-trained staff to reduce instances of running away and to address underlying causes of risky behaviour.

Children who abscond or engage in dangerous behaviours often do so as a response to stress, fear, or unresolved trauma. At Moriah Care, we work to understand these triggers and build trusting relationships that reduce the need for escape or rebellion. By offering emotional stability, proactive intervention, and constant supervision, we help young people feel safe, valued, and understood.

Our team uses a trauma-informed and child-centred approach that emphasises consistency, communication, and partnership with external agencies. We aim to prevent high-risk situations while empowering the child to make safer choices over time.

• 24/7 supervision by trained, alert, and compassionate staff
• Risk assessments and personalised care plans to identify triggers
• Strong therapeutic alliances to build trust and reduce flight behaviour
• Collaborative work with social workers, schools, and families
• Use of de-escalation techniques and emotional regulation support
