PlayItOut

Play is the tool in which children explore the world. Specialist in Early Trauma and Adoption.

@FamilyFuturesUK @BBCNews Nor the Govt reluctance to commit to ASF for more than 12 months at a time!!

[PlayItOut @PlayItOut2]

16 and 17 yr olds = children, let's protect them at all costs. I earnt my SW stripes in residential care, it's so important that the Govt value and recognise the vulnerability of these children and ensure those who need care get it.

[PlayItOut @PlayItOut2]

@Adoption_pcast @willquince @educationgovuk @nadhimzahawi It is beyond frustrating, short sighted and dehumanising for those who need continued services - how can meaningful therapeutic relationships be formed if each year end we simply don't know until the 100th hour!!

@simon_armstead @JenniferJ432 What a sweet sister. Our school system is so shaming. I hate being early to a Friday pick up, seeing depsondant faces at not being 'Star of the Week'.

Please do all you can to help evacuate people at risk in Afghanistan - before it is too late. @RebeccaHarrisMP #EvacuateNow #OurResponsibility

[BEACON FAMILY SERVICES @beacon_families]

Looking forward to welcoming parents to our Just Right State programme. Look at our kit for self care so we can talk self regulating to coregulate. Thanks @CairnsMoir for supplying our #ScaredGang books. Read more here https://t.co/G12l6tqY5e

With September fast approaching & transitions days now taking place, we thought it was a good time to share the free education resources you can downloads from our website & share with your child's nursery, primary or secondary school https://t.co/durms4mvEP @AUK_Schools

[PlayItOut @PlayItOut2]

Fantastic, where your child is at with their vagal state/ tone is important in connecting in play. Love this @BeaconHouseTeam

[BEACON FAMILY SERVICES @beacon_families]

There are a number of reasons we think play is so important. Play helps children and adults connect and build trusting relationships. However, it's important that the type of play is right for how the child is feeling.

This is so important. PPE came too little too late for so many.

[Dr Julia Grace Patterson💙 @JujuliaGrace]

💙WE’RE TAKING THE GOVERNMENT TO COURT TODAY💙

Many NHS workers didn’t have safe PPE🚨

>880 health+social care workers died

Meanwhile, ministers gave💰to friends + associates in PPE contracts (some was unusable😮)

@EveryDoctorUK @GoodLawProject
Pls RT to spread the word👍

[Sally Donovan OBE @sallydwrites]

There are many ways to support those who foster and adopt and their children. Here’s our recorded webinar - loads of practical stuff and some theory too. Please share.

@MarveResources Love this Lynne!!

[Adoption UK @AdoptionUK]

We all talk a lot about trauma responses - flight, fight, freeze & fawn but what do these involuntary responses look like? We use these responses to help us feel like we are surviving the trauma & sometimes they get very embedded.

@BDPerry @Oprah @RobLowe @NeuroSequential @PCAAmerica Nothing short of what you deserve @BDPerry , the impact of your work deserves this platform and more!

[APPG for Adoption and Permanence @appg_ap]

What a brilliant second session we've just had! 🎉Thank you to everyone who joined us! Tickets are now available for our third session coming up on 17 May from 3-4:30pm, where we'll be talking about the value of early permanence. Sign up here for free: https://t.co/lXsRrUBW3q

[Bruce D. Perry, M.D.,Ph.D. @BDPerry]

Our earliest experiences shape key neural networks responsible for stress regulation, attachment & more. Early adversity & relational poverty increase risk while attuned, nurturing builds resilience. Strong evidence to support home visiting programs like @HFAatPCA @PCAAmerica

@DrAmberElliott @raising2childr1 Looks great!

[PlayItOut @PlayItOut2]

@KimSGolding @ddpnetwork I've loved it

Remember the coke bottle analogy; all the 'small' sensory dysregulations, all the 'small' transitions, all the 'small' interactions navigating relationships, even before learning. A great reminder from @AdoptionUK on after school restraint collapse

[Adoption UK @AdoptionUK]

After school restraint collapse is real & many of our children could be feeling it with the return to school. Back in Sept, @AUK_Schools blog addressed how we can help our children deal with the post school collapse. We thought it was worth sharing again: https://t.co/Fmjp6BngAA

[PlayItOut @PlayItOut2]

@KatharineSJ 100% agree. The vulnerabilities for our teenagers 'in care' are exceptional, the nurture and support needed at this age needs to be exceptional.
