TISUK aims to deliver high quality training which enables practitioners to create safe, supportive environments in schools, communities, and other organisations, with a focus on helping children and young people who may have/are going through a trauma. Trauma Informed Schools Wales are a team with a diverse range of backgrounds and a collective passion for ensuring change, for children and young people.
Trauma is a life event that no one ever helped you make sense of. Our brains adapt accordingly which creates problems with the adaptation in everyday life for body, mind and brain. By providing children and young people with daily support from emotionally available adults, intervening early to spot and address difficulties, promoting respectful relationships, fostering calm and safe spaces, valuing each child, adjusting expectations, and enhancing communication skills, TIS aim to build an army of kind and compassionate practitioners.
The ultimate goal is to empower children and young people to overcome challenges, build true resilience, and develop positive life stories, with positive mental well-being thereby creating compassionate communities.
