Join us for our new Relational Practice webinar series!

We’re delighted to announce our forthcoming free lunchtime webinar series on Relational Practice, designed in particular (but not exclusively) for practitioners supporting care experienced young people. Funded by the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation’s Leaving Care Learning Programme, the webinar series will be jointly hosted by ourselves and ThemPra Social Pedagogy CIC.

Over seven webinars, we’ll share valuable insights and practical strategies to enhance relational working. In between each webinar, we’ll also host Community of Practice sessions designed to let you explore how you can further embed relational work in your practice context. All sessions are open to everyone. Read on for the topics and to register for free via the links below.
