Things said by nearly all Brits about the weather this weekend: 1. “I can’t believe how nice it is!” 2. “There’s people outside in shorts” 3. “It makes such a difference, doesn’t it?” 4. “We could eat outside” 5. “Actually it’s not that warm” 6. “Shall we go in?”

Seen in a school yesterday - wise words!

Need a little jump start to your Saturday?

Thinking about children & their behaviour how often are they reacting to our words & language. That's not to parent blame but we need to be the ones bringing solutions and creating systems around our children that are compassionate & empathic to their needs #CCVAB #CPV #APVA #NVR

So joyous to host Dr Karen Treisman at the Lakehouse Crosby for Sefton Fostering service & children's services. She inspired, challenged & truly engaged us to progress our trauma sensitive practice. We were held in safe hands whilst navigating a thorny topic. Bring on Day 2!
