The first years of a child’s life have a significant influence on brain development and the development of social and mental well-being. An infant’s early experiences are dependent on the interaction between them and their parents\, or main care giver\, and the environment in which they live. Support for families in a baby’s first years can increase the likelihood that they will form secure attachment with their parents\, which can have lasting benefits for their subsequent development. Early intervention and prevention can often prevent the development of mental health problems in later years.The focus of this Children in Wales event will be on research evidence and promising practice in relation to promoting infant mental health and the need for a strong foundation in mental health and wellbeing from the early years of a child’s life. Children in Wales aims to raise the strategic profile of infant mental health and identify challenges and opportunities for the future. The event will aim to increase delegates’ understanding and give them the opportunity to consider their own policy and practice\, alongside sharing experiences and practice.This conference will be of particular benefit to all professionals working with infants and their families\, and those supporting parents\, including:Health VisitorsMidwives Social WorkersMental health professionalsFlying Start WorkersEarly Years workersThose supporting parentsAnyone with a policy lead or interest in early years or family support   \nCosts: Members: £65    Non-members: £75  (including lunch) URL:https://c3sc.org.uk/event-single/promoting-infant-mental-health/ LOCATION:Future Inn\, Cardiff Bay\, Future Inn\, Cardiff Bay CATEGORIES:Conference END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20130206T100000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20130206T160000 DTSTAMP:20260406T234721 CREATED:20130206T100000Z LAST-MODIFIED:20130206T100000Z UID:45295-1360144800-1360166400@c3sc.org.uk SUMMARY:C3SC training: Getting the Best from your Volunteers DESCRIPTION:This two-day course is suitable for those responsible for the management of volunteers and volunteer programmes.

Research has identified that: \n – Over 30% of Childline callers report that they have experienced bullying  – 2/3 of young carers are bullied at school  – “Bullying was a common theme\, with nearly every group citing this as a reason for non-attendance” (National Behaviour and Attendance Review 2009) – 18% of pupils in Year 6\, falling to 11% in Year 10\, admit to bullying other pupils (All Wales Survey of Bullying in Schools 2009) \n  \nReducing bullying incidents is undoubtedly a shared objective between children\, young people\, professionals and practitioners alike. However\, addressing issues raised by children and young people can often prove challenging and\, in some instances\, we may feel unable to resolve conflict.    \n  \nIn order to address issues around bullying it is vital that professionals and practitioners\, who work with children and young people\, have a shared understanding of what determines bullying behavior\, and feel confident in applying consistent approaches to prevent and tackle bullying. \n  \nThis one-day course will provide an overview of bullying\, addressing the following areas: \n – Understanding bullying and the complexity of behaviours that arise through bullying incidents – Recognising when bullying may be occurring – Responding effectively to reports of bullying – Identifying strategies to prevent bullying behaviours \n  \nPrice: Members £115  Non-members £135 URL:https://c3sc.org.uk/event-single/recognising-and-responding-to-bullying-behaviours-2/ LOCATION:Merthyr Tydfil\, Merthyr Tydfil CATEGORIES:Training END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
