A confident stride towards a brighter future
Stride is an Alternative Provision and is part of the Wirral Guild of Alternative Providers. We aim to address anxiety in children with low attendance at school through education, therapy and person-centred care. Referrals can be made via the Wirral Portal or by contacting Catherine using the contact details here.
Referrals to Stride2020 are handled on a case-by-case basis.
Stride offers specialist teaching and therapy in one location to assist children and young people in practically combatting anxiety. The options are fluid and designed to uniquely create the most beneficial therapy for each individual as Stride provides Person Centred Care. Additionally our aim is to work collaboratively to facilitate liaison with outside agencies.
