The Trauma Toolbox for Staff: summer 2023 dates
Most training focuses on service users; this free workshop focuses on the professionals providing the care. It's a half day, face to face session to explore a range of practical tools which can be used to aid stabilisation when beginning to feel triggered or overwhelmed at work. It's a relaxed and interactive session for those working with both children and adults.
The sessions are being held on a selection of dates between May and September and for more information please go to the training pages of the Norfolk Safeguarding Children Partnership website, and then scroll down to the link for The Trauma Toolbox for Staff
