White House Guardianships (WHG), an AEGIS accredited guardianship organisation started in 1992 by Duncan and Jane Hume and today run by their children, James, Peggotty & William.
WHG offers local guardianship support to students studying in British state and private schools. They have a network of 40 Local Guardians, so there is always a WHG presence close to every student ready to assist with transport, host family accommodation, daily support and emergencies.
Across Great Britain, they have over 400 host families. Each host family is recruited by WHG to guarantee the QUALITY of accommodation. Host families can be used at any time of the year to provide a SAFE and comfortable place for students to stay.
WHG undertakes checks which provide reports from Police records, Social Services Departments and Child Protection registers on all host families, staff and taxi drivers. From their Head Office in Bournemouth, they monitor students’ welfare, travel and host family arrangements. They also have a 24-hour 7-day emergency service for students, parents, schools, and agents.
‘I would like to take this opportunity to leave on record our gratitude towards WHG. Their help has been invaluable: during these two years their first priority has always been the benefit and welfare of our child, and we are very grateful for this.’ – Parent.
White House Guardians partners with Andrew Walker Education to provide guardianship services to international families.
