A series of webinars focusing on trauma, by 6 Scottish children’s charities and services. Supported by Dr Bruce Perry @BDPerry who will join our final session.
Fun&informative presentation by Staf today on systems change to put relationships and young people voice at the heart of the work we do-great work! @stafscot@MTMTcon
This was the feedback word of the day!
Huge thanks to all who joined us, especially @StafScot for leading a session full of participation, policy and partnerships… plus thinking, sharing, caring, funding, singing and hedgehogs 🦔 - we covered a LOT of ground! #MoreThanMyTrauma
All our previous sessions are recorded and available to participants, and there’s still time to book to join today’s session, plus those by @AberlourCCT (Sept) and @BDPerry (Oct) live.

It’s our 4th webinar in our #MoreThanMyTrauma series today, and we’re looking forward hearing from @StafScot about how their trauma journey has influenced their participation, policy and partnership work.
‘What is the question all children ask themselves constantly?
‘Am I safe?’
So consider what *you* are taking into that environment. Right down to the perfume you’re wearing, which could trigger something for a child you’re working with.
#MoreThanMyTrauma
‘We are the tool by which children can recover from trauma - so it is natural, and no wonder, that we may feel exhausted at the end of a day supporting them’.
Jan on the importance of self-care. #MoreThanMyTrauma
‘Trauma-informed practice is not easy or something that is learned and practised - it is an ongoing process that challenges us every day.’
We’re off and running on day two with the wonderful Jan Montgomery talking about reflective practice. #MoreThanMyTrauma
And that’s a wrap! With some challenging thinking, great discussion and a smidgeon of bopping along to @SClub7 we finish our first #MoreThanMyTrauma session with @ClacksEPS.
See you on 24 June, when we’ll be joined by @KibbleCharity!
‘The outcomes we achieve when we prioritise regulating and relating are enormous.’
@ClacksEPS sharing how they helped each other cope as managers and colleagues. #MoreThanMyTrauma
‘You don’t learn from experience - you learn from REFLECTING on experience.’
We’re off and running with the first of our first new #MoreThanMyTrauma seminars, courtesy of @ClacksEPS.
What a privilege to hear @BDPerry share his insight & expertise on the importance of relationships & how we must respond as individuals & as a country to ensure children can heal & recover from trauma.
Thanks to everyone who’s joined us for #MTMT20.
Can’t wait until next year!
That's a wrap! Thank you to everyone that has attended #MTMT20, particularly @BDPerry for his contributions, as well as @JackieJbrock, @SallyAnnKelly1 and @Danjohnso for chairing each day. We hope you are as full of ideas, inspriration and empathy as we are!
