Virtual Delivery via Zoom
We have developed new services and adjusted current provision so it can all be delivered virtually.
Creating new futures
We recognise the complex challenges of working with traumatised, hard to reach and marginalised children and young people. We provide a wide range of services to enable organisations to meet their needs.
Working with you
Through working with organisations, senior teams, staff and carers we intend to develop trauma informed expertise and excellence in service delivery to hard to reach, traumatised and marginalised children, young people and young adults.
How we work
We focus on trauma informed organisational and service development. We work directly with you to understand the needs of the organisation, staff and service users. We provide support and interventions throughout the organisation to all you to best meet the needs of the children and young people you work with.

All our services are provided by a multidisciplinary team of highly qualified and experienced professional consultants, trainers and lecturers with a range of backgrounds including psychotherapy, psychology, social work, education, health and research.

A Thought for the Month - March 2021
I have been thinking recently about the strain that the Covid Pandemic is placing on us all. I have noticed through personal reflection and discussion with others that our response to Covid has flowed like a wave over the course of the year.
The complexities of professional networking
I have been thinking about professional networks and the importance of relationships. In my regular therapeutic support sessions with fosters carers I have noticed what seems to be a theme of frustration in the interface with children’s social workers and I suspect this goes both ways.
A Thought for the Month - January 2021
I have just returned from just over 3 weeks leave and by this, I mean a proper absence, no looking at work emails or answering work calls. I have not done this for at least 4 years and it was such an anomaly I chose to call it a retreat.
