Today I was privileged to introduce @TheFlyingChild as our keynote speaker at the @NSPCC development day for our department. Sophie gave such a powerful, insightful & hopeful talk into how & why lived & living experience must inform development, delivery & decision making

Our journey started 13 months ago & has broken us all. We know we have to prioritise happiness but the narrative the other way is so powerful around education. @75ThunderRoad thank you for giving us hope
On #worldmentalhealthday🧵 It's been two years since anxiety began to consume my daughter, when she was at the start of Year 7. It's a year since she stepped back into her first lesson. Now in Year 9, she has attended 20 out of 25 lessons every week, for the past month. 1/

So pleased you are able to support our continuous learning to keep developing our city to be more trauma informed. My personal connection with @TheFlyingChild has helped develop the work at @TFCPlymouth & fuelled focus on prevention. Can’t wait 😝
It’s a privilege to have been asked to speak to the Trauma Informed Plymouth Network next week. 🌸 #TheFlyingChildStory #CSA @PlymTraumaNet

I try to be trauma informed whilst believing no behaviour should be excused. I cannot comprehend the right wing ‘demonstrations’ from people who must be disenfranchised bc of awful previous gov’t rhetoric. Where is the accountability for stirring hate? #BeBetter
