“I realised that Black boys and Black men, specifically, we go through a lot of complex trauma that intersects a lot of systems, but there hasn’t been a space or a system that I ever felt was safe enough and actually helped with the complex trauma that I was dealing with” #KennethBourne

Join us for a powerful presentation that will shed light on the rapidly growing issue of#ChildFinancialExploitation #YouthFraud – a harm that’s infiltrating the lives of children, young people and young adults, often right under our noses… Link: lnkd.in/emDTRXvY

Just for the record, more Black boys are exposing their vulnerabilities and openly communicating this, thankful to have @NDodzro in our midst creating space for more dialogue and change… #FridaysWeTalk

“Exposure to trauma through violence is unfortunately a daily reality for many young, Black men (Bertram & Dartt, 2008). One way or another, many young Black men are carrying around the burden of trauma. I see their heavy shoulders daily.” @NDodzro

78 years ago Auschwitz was liberated. More than one million children, women and men were murdered there as part of the Holocaust. A dark lesson of history; humanity owes it to each of the victims to ensure it will never happen again. #HolocaustMemorialDay

I heard back from participants- they described essential and inspirational training. So pleased you are working with us.

Just spoke on BBC Radio London about the importance of the Coroner’s ruling in the Molly Russell case. A first step towards safeguarding children and young people online. #TwitterEPs #PsychInEd #ioe

#LambethVanguard aims to work effectively with communities to co-produce better outcomes for young people at risk of being involved in violence. Vanguard provides therapeutic support whilst addressing local inequalities to improve their lives.
It takes an older generation’s warped values to raise children who behave in this way and violent youth crime has been a feature of British life since the 18th century, at least.
Impressive work from an organisation having a positive impact on our young people in Lambeth
Tonight, we have #PeerResearchers and #YoungLeaders from across #Lambeth sharing strategies for keeping young people safe, healthy and hopeful… #LPAC #CommunityAction
Delighted to find out this morning that seeds sown a while ago have grown into something so positive for young people. Trainees @ DEdPsy #IOE, are always inspiring to work with
Fabulous resources inspired by @Dmcomins input to the DEdPsy at #IOE and amazing development work by @RHIANNONHURLEY3 .

If everyone who has ever been grateful for a doctor followed and retweeted we would reach a million in minutes and be able to show all NHS staff the support they continue to need.
It will take just a few seconds of your life but could make such a difference.

Pls RT if you still wear masks 😷💙
(Lots of trolls telling me no one wears them and I just don’t think this is true)

If everybody who is in favour of this followed and retweeted we’d reach a million followers by midnight and be much stronger together.
