Complex developmental trauma can be understood as the experience of multiple and/or chronic and prolonged, developmentally adverse traumatic events (including abuse and neglect) in early life. Research shows us that traumatic childhood experiences can have a profound impact on many different areas of functioning (attachment, biological, sensory, physiology, social, emotional and psychological). If we are to best meet the needs of young people and minimise the risk of further trauma, a thorough understanding of developmental trauma and its impact is warranted for anyone working with children who have experienced early adverse trauma. This training will provide an introduction into complex developmental trauma, including a space to reflect on how such knowledge can be used to improve our work with young people.

This is a basic/refresher course which provides information about the roles and responsibilities of staff working with children. This includes information on recognising abuse, information sharing and referrals.
