Description:	In this context, the residential sector in the UK has changed considerably over recent years. It has reduced significantly in size, the balance between the use of residential and foster care has shifted markedly, it caters primarily for adolescents (although a significant proportion of younger children experience residential care) and for young people who have experienced significant and multiple difficulties in their lives. Residential care, however, remains a diverse sector: it includes residential child care homes, residential schools, therapeutic communities, secure accommodation services, and services for disabled children and young people.
