@AltrinchamBID @PSGLaw Fantastic achievement!

[Beyond Barriers CIC @Beyond_MCR]

@altrinchamtoday @AltyinBloom So sorry to hear this. We'd be happy to donate a plant. Maybe other Altrincham businesses would be too?

[Beyond Barriers CIC @Beyond_MCR]

@forestyear4 Thank you so much for all your kindness, warmth and enthusiasm for the children Mrs Laffly. You've left an impact...

[Beyond Barriers CIC @Beyond_MCR]

This describes the journey many people share by the time they get to us. Our trauma programme is focused on the gaps; our emotional healthcheck is being co-produced with #marginalisedgroups; but we need courageous conversations at the top to change paradigms before systems

Are they hard to reach? Or are we hard to hear? ✍️🏽

What is flexible working, beyond flexitime and working from home? https://t.co/AeX4TOm8PG

@forestyear4 We have been so so touched by the energy and effort Year 4 gave to this. What a bunch of superstars they (and the staff) are. I hope they will understand what a special thing they've done for a lovely little boy and his mum. Sooooo proud of all of them 🥰

[Prof James Davies (PhD) 💭 @JDaviesPhD]

Young people are more distressed than ever before, for clear socio/political/cultural reasons. Yet, we do nothing about this, as all this distress is apparently 'mental disorder' needing treatment. How are we STILL making these very basic category errors?

So this week we said Goodbye to our lovely little nest above Altrincham, to move around the corner to our new home. It has been a great space over the last 2 1/2 years which allowed us to grow and provide a safe space for the people who came to us. 1/3

[Beyond Barriers CIC @Beyond_MCR]

But we needed somewhere bigger and more private to grow, expand our Trauma-Informed Yoga plans and provide more Staff wellbeing sessions for local businesses.

It was great to have our LifeBEAT group back in today to start making the place a home. 2/3

[Beyond Barriers CIC @Beyond_MCR]

Will the focus on economic health at the expense of mental health actually be self-sabotaging in the medium-term? Especially in towns that are still reeling from the trauma of a pandemic. I’m no expert in economics, but this makes uncomfortable reading… https://t.co/5HAjZv3Eer

[Beyond Barriers CIC @Beyond_MCR]

@Joanne13Harding Thanks for raising Awareness of our Rising Stronger programme Joanne. We still have 4 places left for our October 12th group which is free to Trafford residents. And there’ll be a Trauma-sensitive yoga course later this year. All funded by @TraffordCouncil winter resilience fund

[Beyond Barriers CIC @Beyond_MCR]

Great event for those interested in support for children, young people and families. We will present on the Trauma-sensitive Trafford project -developing a local network of trauma-sensitive community providers, that are more inclusive for people with complex emotional heath needs

[Jolene Sheehan @SheehanJolene]

The next Joy Ethic show is airing tomorrow, Friday 16th Sept, on @ALLFM at 1pm and then on catchup via https://t.co/6mtjX3zXcr Amazing guests talking about their experiences of gaining health and wellbeing from being in nature, plus lots of info on great activities near you.

[Beyond Barriers CIC @Beyond_MCR]

We're looking for associates to join our merry team of psychologists as we grow... it's a great way to reconnect with therapy again, work more flexibly, and create social impact at the same time. Feel free to get in touch for more information

[Beyond Barriers CIC @Beyond_MCR]

We’re looking for a TRAFFORD DENTIST who is curious about how emotional health needs & trauma are relevant to their work

This may be of interest to your families @calmcic

[TraumaTherapyMcr @TherapyMcr]

I'm very proud to be presenting at @cmcafs conference: Surviving the storm, stories of courage, connection and adaptation.

I will be offering a practical session, Your Body, Your Ally to empower young people, their families and those who are supporting them through trauma.
