Bracknell Forest- 2 Day Trauma Informed Practice

We completed consultation with Bracknell Forest Early Help/Youth Support team to create a bespoke 2-day Trauma Informed Practice training program. The aim of the training was to support staff to build skills to support children and young people accessing services. Bespoke case studies focused on direct practice relevant to Youth Work, enabling staff to apply the skills directly to their everyday practice. Youth Work, Exploitation, Youth Projects, Safeguarding and School Inclusion teams were represented at the training.
