BraveBox Safety Planning Training
In response to the alarming 48% increase in high-risk complex referrals due to the cost-of-living crisis, EdShift is committed to ensuring that frontline staff have the necessary skills and confidence to provide effective, life-changing support to children and young people affected by trauma stemming from domestic abuse and violence.

Why Our Safety planning training?
We believe that every child deserves to be safe and receive immediate attention and care, which is why we developed The BraveBox Initiative, a comprehensive resource and training designed to empower frontline staff in providing critical support to children and young people.
By equipping staff with the necessary tools, skills and resources we can ensure that children receive the care they need, when they need it most.
