Welcome to our website

Update on our services Spring 2021

Thank you for visiting our website. We are pleased say we have been very actively delivering commissioned and open access Protective Behaviours training courses online. As it is not yet safe enough, our ‘face to face’ training and parent groups remain postponed however we will review this in the Autumn.

Our parent courses are also being provided online with new courses starting after Easter and whether these can run face to face will also be reviewed in the Autumn.

In the meantime please visit our website from time to time, our Facebook page or Twitter for updates or please email us enquiries@familiesfeelingsafe.co.uk

We will do our best to support PBs practitioners and families and invite you to continue to use your networks in whatever way feels safe and right for you. In the meantime we wish you the very best in staying safe and healthy.

Protective Behaviours Workshop attendee

The most significant piece of learning was the work around The Language of Safety – tuning in, re-phrasing and becoming more aware. The course has raised my awareness of all areas of Protective Behaviours, how this will fit with our culture/ethos in school and alongside Restorative Practice approach.

Morris workshop

I can talk better with my mum about my feelings. I told her I even enjoy the workshops because I feel safe to say what I want about my feelings. I like Matilda and mum’s getting me one for Christmas.

The facilitators were wonderful, clear and to the point, amazing. I will use it every day to help children overcome their barriers to learning.

Families Feeling Safe Programme

My children have benefitted from me attending because it’s helped create a happier home by me being more understanding and reacting differently.

My Feelings Matter workshop

The most significant thing I learned is to understand situations and I have the right to feel safe like the rest of my family/friends. I thought it was a well delivered course by 2 brilliant tutors who were calm, clear and supportive. Absolutely brilliant course and it’s made me aware that you can never stop learning about different strategies.

Managing Strong Feelings Workshop

The most significant thing I have learned is that I’m not failing as a dad and that most people probably face parenting issues. I’ve now got skills to help me help my children.

Communication workshop

I found the group very good, very supportive and much needed. It’s been helpful knowing you can share without judgement. I’m listening more and we are communicating better at home and my children are benefitting from me being calmer.
