Our monthly meeting for organisations and individuals working with/for older people locally. We always welcome new partners at the Ageing Network meetings, so if you know of anyone working with older people, or are simply in contact with older people who are keen to have a voice on issues related to ageing, then do invite them to connect to the network.
For this meeting we will focus on Accessibility, plus discuss plans for Loneliness Awareness Week.

A brief introduction to Trauma Based Practice
"Individual trauma results from an event, series of events, or set of circumstances that is experienced by an individual as physically or emotionally harmful or life threatening and that has lasting adverse effects on the individual's functioning and mental, physical, social, emotional, or spiritual well-being."

In this course we will look at:
• The estimated numbers of children and adults who experience trauma in the UK
• How previous trauma can influence present behaviour
• The key principles of a trauma informed approach
This course is only meant as an introduction, however you will be given material and further links to explore this subject in more detail.
Join us for the first Connecting the Connectors coffee morning.
