Request Details
 
On 24 February 2022 there is a conference in Bath hosted by Trauma Recovery UK that members of the Trauma Informed Keyham group would like to attend. 
 
Please click on link below for more details 
 
 
In March 2022, the Trauma Informed Plymouth Network, Tree Project CIC and Plymouth Together started a 12-month program to explore trauma informed practice and collaborative community working. The intention has been to provide a supportive, reflective space for the key individuals who have been at the forefront of the community response in Keyham, Ford and North Prospect to ensure they feel sufficiently resourced to support their communities. The hope has been to create a sustainable local network of trauma-informed practitioners enabling greater community cohesion over the period of a year. Regular participants are from the local policing team, Keyham Neighbourhood Watch, Wolseley Trust, Victim Support and other local community groups. 
 
The focus of the conference is specifically on equipping professionals working with children, young people and families who have experienced trauma with the theme of Traumatised Communities to Trauma Informed & Relationship Centred Communities. Internationally renowned keynote speakers Betsy de Thierry and Lisa Cherry have so far been confirmed. Members of the group are keen to attend the conference together to gather valuable learning that can be brought back to the local community. As the timing of the conference is February 2023, with the 12-month program due to come to an end in March 2023, it is hoped that members of the group will return inspired with ideas for sustaining the legacy of the group. It also represents an investment in this exceptional group of workers who have so steadfastly supported their communities in the wake of the August 2021 events. 

Early bird tickets are £25. They are 15 consistent members of the group = £375. 
£125 towards hiring of a minibus, insurance and a driver. 
 
£250.00 GBP
