Blended learning options to foster relational and restorative practice.

Health and Social Care, NHS Trusts

Drawing on relational and restorative practice to co-create solutions with all stakeholders.

 

Our vision is for relational and restorative practice to become mandatory and a core part of  mainstream health and social care services.

This will enable leaders, managers and staff to have sustainable, enjoyable careers, characterised by accountability; equity; shared decisions and joint problem-solving; conversations that move people from confrontation to collaboration; a working culture that values the voice of everyone.

 

Our aim is to give ownership of relational and restorative practice to those we work with.

Evolving a culture defined by the quality of human relationships, and developed with staff at all levels, is a perfect recipe for implementing and sustaining change, improving productivity, patient/client safety and care.

Engage with us in ways that meet your existing strengths, needs and intended outcomes, in person or online.

“It has given us something specific to put into action straightaway – how to plan a meeting with a complainant to get the most out of the meeting and ensure an outcome.”

Solution-focused Collaboration

  • Leadership development
  • Workforce training and coaching to foster better relationships and communications
  • Learning the practicalities of working ‘with’
  • Drawing on restorative and relational practice to enable psychological safety
  • Deep dives into conversations that are difficult or challenging
  • Helping teams to better collaborate and problem-solve together 
  • Threading restorative and relational practice into Early Resolution, Complaints and Grievance procedures
  • Lowering staff absence and improving staff retention
  • Shared responsibility-taking and accountability
  • Positive mental health and wellbeing
