Kentmere Residential centre is managed by the service and provides a unique residential experience for the borough’s children and young people. The centre is split over 2 buildings and caters for groups of 20 and 10 respectively. Both buildings are self-catering and a range of activities can be delivered in the area by the Positive Activities Team. Private groups can also book the centre for get togethers and holidays.
