Professional Boundaries training
14 January 2019
"A small group of staff came together on Friday 11th January to receive training around Professional Boundaries, led by Tracy from Training and Assessment in Healthcare. The morning was really engaging and thought- provoking, encouraging us to carefully consider how we should appropriately respond in a number of scenarios when working with clients. We learnt the importance of self-awareness and how our emotions might affect our clarity in decision-making, as well as understanding how professional boundaries are in place to safeguard ourselves and our own well-being as well as that of our clients. Overall it was an excellent and worthwhile morning." Jess Rolfe, Young Women's Outreach Worker

Norfolk Children and Young People’s Mental Health Conference
13 December 2018
Two members of the Rose Project, Becky & Jess, attended the Norfolk Children and Young People’s Mental Health Conference yesterday at the John Innes Conference Centre, Norwich. This was a great opportunity to come alongside multiple agencies working across Norfolk all with one purpose; to nurture and protect the well-being of some of our county’s most vulnerable children. There was time to network with individuals and agencies, strengthening our existing partnerships as well as creating new ones. There were a variety of interesting keynote speakers and seminars, covering topics such as the effect of trauma on attachment in infants, and the poet Hollie McNish shared some of her spoken word with us in the afternoon. Overall, it was a really engaging and informative day.
