We do more than training — we co-create learning and development tailored to your unique needs, helping you and those you work with to have more good days.
At the heart of what we do is partnership. We work alongside schools, early years teams, adult social care and businesses to create unique solutions that help you achieve lasting, meaningful change.
Our experienced practitioners specialise in turning science-based knowledge into practical, actionable learning. From trauma-informed practice and attachment training to staff wellbeing and culture change, we bring the most up-to-date research to life, in ways that are relevant to your organisation, service or setting.
We’re with you on every step of your journey. Whether it’s a long-term strategic project focused on system’s change or a single training event, we will work together to co-create programmes that can be applied in your context. Our services also include leadership development, relational approaches, and supporting individual vulnerable children.
Healing and recovery from trauma and stress happen when we come together as a community. We empower organisations to create spaces where people feel safe, supported, and resilient. For schools, this may mean a whole school training approach, integrating relational practice into every interaction. For leaders or business, it might be developing meaningful staff wellbeing approaches that build resilience amongst your teams.
We understand the importance of tailoring every programme to reflect the needs of those you work with. Whether you’re supporting children’s mental health, enhancing workplace culture, or building trauma-informed environments in early years or social care settings, we’ll design an approach that works for you.
Our expertise spans a range of specialist areas, including:
- Trauma recovery informed approaches
- Staff resilience and supportive work communities
- Supporting looked-after children and vulnerable children
- EBSA training support and strategies for inclusion
We’re proud to combine the latest neuroscientific research to combine cultural and contextual understanding with relational practice that is practical and pragmatic to implement. Whether you’re at the beginning of your journey or looking to build on existing work, we’re here to ensure you achieve sustainable, impactful outcomes.

I found everything very useful but the clarity of thinking, and putting what I already knew into words and clear concepts, was outstanding.

Take down the fences: why we need to demilitarise our community life
In this blog we the discuss how our social and emotional ties have been eroded and the long term impact of being disconnected. When we invest in social connection instead, we reap the benefits for generations to come - Social ties are the cheapest medicine we have.

This course has been a breath of fresh air. Rachael as a trainer delivers from a place of real knowledge in theory and in practice.
It has provided a reflective space for our SLT in a very busy world of new directives, it cuts through it all and holds the child at the very centre.
