“Wow, wow, WOW! The best training I have attended." Trauma and Change with Staffordshire CC
Greetings one and all,
Here I am sharing some absolutely lovely feedback from a fabulous group of learners from Staffordshire County Council. A big shout out to all the staff at Newcastle Children’s Centre in Knutton, Newcastle under Lyme for making us feel at home and sorting out a wonderful training venue for us. I hope you enjoyed your doughnuts…
This week, I delivered my extremely popular Trauma and Change course which highlights the lived experience of both Ryan and Charlotte. Many people have been terribly moved by both their stories and the way in which they fought to embrace post traumatic growth. They have both faced challenges that would crush other human beings, but being the resilient legends that they are, they have emerged, blinking into the light of a new dawn. I am blown away by the pair of them and the fact that learners on the training enjoy hearing their life story and the way in which they were motivated to change for the better. The future beckons.
I have collated together the learner feedback, all of which is uniformly excellent and 100% positive. I’m very proud of my Trauma and Change course and the fact so many organisations and local authorities are embedding it into practice.
