I am now able to value the importance of all who are involved in the planning of contacts, and will utilise supervision more so that it includes discussions around contact, impact of contact on myself as well as the child.

Amazing training delivered by a knowledgeable, compassionate and considerate woman. I feel that I learned a great deal and consolidated other knowledge. I could have listening to Kate teach for hours!

I liked that I could see the video of Kate as well as the slides. It helped me to engage with what she was saying.

I think this trainer was incredibly knowledgeable, inspiring and motivating...I can't identify any ways that she could've delivered this content any better!

I appreciated the fact that the presenter had a teaching background. This allowed her to give examples relevant to schools and contextualised the training in a way that will benefit us moving forward.

This course gives me a useful understanding of attachment, which is useful for working with my foster children, who have attachment disorders.

Thought Susan was amazing, such energy and knowledge and passion. Within our small group we remarked how we would need to try and channel her enthusiasm to motivate others when we come to share our learning. She kept the day flowing beautifully.

Our trainer, Sue, was terrific. She delivered an interesting, factual and relevant subject in a friendly and professional manner with humour and inclusion. Her subject knowledge was evident, broad and personally inspiring.

The opportunities for people to discuss the themes and ideas was invaluable. So often, school staff are deprived of this opportunity to embed their thinking and understanding.

This is totally what we need as a service to empower our parents and improve outcomes for their children. I love how practical this training is: the examples, resources and development of a shared language. For me, personally, I need to know the 'whys' first -so this training was perfect for me! Thank you
