Supporting those working directly with people in communities affected by violence
If you’re a manager supporting groups of staff or individuals affected by violence, Research in Practice have produced helpful learning resources on supporting practitioner wellbeing, trauma-informed leadership, and addressing systemic racism.
Practitioner group
The first meeting of the LSCP Practitioner Group took place recently and we were delighted that so many practitioners had volunteered to join.
The first task for the group is to provide feedback on this newsletter. Our aim is to provide an informative newsletter on the topic of safeguarding, for all practitioners that work with children and young people in Leeds.
We will publish the outcomes from the feedback in a future issue and as a result there might be some changes to the newsletter. Watch this space!
If you’d like to join the LSCP Practitioner Group send an email to: lscp.info@leeds.gov.uk
Summer activities for families
When it comes to child friendly things to do, Leeds is the place to be! Whether it’s days out, days in, new experiences or out of this world experiences.
