Who we are | Savannah Lodge

Savannah Lodge is a family resource centre initially set up in 2017. Jasmine gardens private limited - an offshoot provides children's homes.

Since being established, the service has gone from strength to strength and continues to develop due to the reputation and quality of the service delivered. We have experienced managers with extensive knowledge and experience of working within children and adult services.

This has resulted in Savannah Lodge growing from its roots as a family assessment centre to now offering children in care services, outreach parenting support packages and a contact centre.

Our passionate and experienced staff team ensures that we continue delivering high quality support for families and a brighter future for children.
