How can social workers and foster carers create records that have a positive impact on people's lives?

We welcome Dr Lisa Cherry to the podcast to discuss how we can take a trauma-informed approach to recording information about a child or young person's life.

Lisa has been working in education and children's services for more than 30 years and in this episode she shares advice for both social work professionals and foster carers. Learn what makes 'good' record-keeping -- from the language we use to the moments we choose to record -- and how you can promote healing in care-experienced adults.

How might grief and loss affect children and young people's behaviour and relationships? And how can we support care-experienced children and young people to process their feelings?

We welcome back to the podcast Ciara McClelland, who specialises in working with children and families impacted by adverse childhood experiences, to find out more about the impact of grief and loss on the brain and body. Ciara is a trainer from Trauma Informed Consultancy Services.

For this episode, we are partnering with Lively Minds: the mental health podcast who are posting it on their feed too! Head over to their show to hear Ciara dig deeper into the world of dramatherapy in her conversation with hosts, Ellie and Will.
