Setting down to support our young parents presenting what they need to social workers in the Pre-birth service @Bhamchildtrust @JTurnross
Our YP are so good at presenting, powerfully explaining how they need professionals to work with them and why the new perinatal pathway is so important @NHSBSol @Bhamchildtrust
Superb to see so many professionals supporting the YP co-produced perinatal pathway for #careexperienced parents @Bhamchildtrust @NHSBSol
Great to see the new @Bhamchildtrust Practice Model including the videos designed & voiced over by our young people @mkershaw_uk @lara_timms putting children central
Delivering training to 2nd year #socialworkers putting young people’s voices central to their practice, challenging practice & having lots of fun

Incredible session w children inc powerful messages about #socialwork with children in birth families. Everyone - we need to stop removing children in marked #police cars with lights & sirens! That trauma is equal to any other they experience @Bhamchildtrust @WMPolice
What’s not to love! Great to be (as always) hugely supported by a child focused principle social worker 👍

“The best thing I’ve done since starting this role” brilliant feedback for our young people’s takeover of the last corporate parenting board from lead member @KarenInSellyOak @BhamCityCouncil thanks to everyone for listening to children’s voices @lara_timms @JTurnross
Great discussion in @Bhamchildtrust Corporate Parenting Board, lots of will to meet the needs YP identified in the Care Leavers Offer - health, housing, transport & social activities. Great to see colleagues & partners pushing through.
Blown away by the quality of reflection, practice & child focus of @Bhamchildtrust #socialwork during YP led training today. Such passion to do what is right #humbled with honesty and huge support for each other. I wish every child & LA had this.
We had a blast 😁 Thanks for the opportunity to get key brand new CE YP messages straight to the @Bhamchildtrust workforce
Love this!! Thanks Guys for delivering another fabulous session with our amazing ACFP social workers 🧡
