Course details

This conference is an excellent opportunity to find out about strategies that work for children and young people to enable them to regulate. Dave Whittaker, author of The Kindness Principle will deliver an inspirational keynote speech. Dave’s innovative work shows the power of care, love, support and, in his own words, ‘battering them with kindness’. Every child’s start to life is not the same. Regardless, professionals need to give children the same chances to flourish, grow and be the best they can be. Attend the conference, challenge your way of thinking and make a difference for vulnerable children and young people!
