It's here! We received the #VR for the hub - purchased with the award from @theRCOT - bittersweet & the #endofanera as we hand our student project over to the capable hands of Routeways! Great to see the staff engaging in #CPD & upskilling in sensory based interventions! Pt1

[Embracing Complexity @EmbraceComplex]

Young people with learning disabilities and mental health problems are at risk of falling through the cracks of our society due to the lack of preventative approaches and joined up support, say @CYPMentalHealth #LDWeek19 #EmbraceComplexity https://t.co/A4m9RKaoSt

[RCOT CYPF @RCOT_CYPF]

We are moving towards the end of the 2nd day of #rcot2019 conference so it’s time to share with you some of the posters on display that relate to CY&F.

[Sense-Aware @senseaware_sw]

As we make the transition from students to newly qualified practitioners, we will be exploring some new avenues for the project, in how we can fill gaps and work best with the community. Keep an eye out for updates over the coming months! 👀

#otalk bingo number 2 is done. This is my favourite poster mainly because the authors funded me and an LXP to come to Plymouth and talk about some really challenging subjects with them. Very impressed by them, @SophieMaynard8 and the @OTsocPlym
