Helen: Vicarious trauma is real. Sometimes I turn off the news, play games on my phone & zone out. Reflective practice, getting together as a team and having fun. Sometimes it feels wrong, but it has to be done. You have to look after yourself so you can look after others.

Cath: I've got fantastic colleagues. You can't make difficult decisions in isolation. I can always call or chat with a colleague to tap into my support network and because of that, I can provide that support to others and organisations too. #SafeguardingAdultsWeek

Emma-Jane Taylor (E-J) 🇬🇧 I trained a residential staff team a couple of weeks ago. At the end, one man was taking ages to leave. He was waiting for everyone else to go first. When they’d all left he said ‘I’ve hung back to say - I’m 49 years old - and nobody has never told me it wasn’t my fault before’.

Our mentors have had a very powerful day of training with Andy from CYP First increasing the tools in our tool kit so that we can share these with the young people we work with. #youngpeople #mentor #mentoringmatters #youth

As part of our staff training week, today we welcomed our good friend Andy to Brightstar Wolverhampton where he lead the team through #safeguarding and #trauma training. We’re so lucky to have CYP First as a partner ⭐️

Andy Thompson from CYP First talking about professional desensitisation in the workforce at the #YourTurnVAWGConference in Beds NWG Network Bedfordshire Police YourTurn

We had a fantastic time yesterday at the #YouTurnVAWGConference2023! The knowledge, experience and insight across all the speakers was truly incredible, while the conference itself provided an invaluable opportunity to increase our awareness on the impact of sexual trauma.

We have moved over to Threads if you would still like to witness our complete lack of input on these sites !!! Please feel free to give us a follow, like or share (if that happens on there). Will drop Twitter / X once this has been seen by enough people ! ❤️
