Today is #CareDay 💜 The world's biggest celebration of care-experienced children and young people. It's coordinated by the 5 Nations, 1 Voice alliance of leading children’s charities across the UK and Ireland: @VoicesFromCare, @WhoCaresScot, @epicireland, @VOYPIC

[All On The Board @allontheboard]

It’s Time To Talk Day, but every day should be a time to talk day. We need to be honest about mental health. Talking will help save lives. If you don’t feel like you can talk to people in your life there are many organisations you can talk to.

A sad day here at Surrey Virtual School, as we say goodbye to Joe, our Communications, Participation and Training Officer. We'll certainly miss the energy and enthusiasm that he brought to work everyday, leaving a positive impact on us all. Best of luck for the future Joe! 🌟

Think of it as a mix of group coaching, relational practice and peer supervision, with one eye on how you can take some of the approaches back to use in your school!
This is an in-person event, being held at Woodhatch (Reigate)
