Being Jesus' Hands and Feet - "Telling the Story"

The Being Jesus' Hands and Feet (Growbaby) Conference is back this September and we would love for you to join us!

We all have our own story to tell and we have a role in telling the stories of the families we meet. We also have the privilege of sharing the greatest story in all history.  How do we provide a platform for the Jesus story, a megaphone for our Growbaby families stories and share our own stories with respect, dignity and empathy?  

We’ll be hearing from Dr Carole Kaplan. Dr Kaplan is a retired Child Psychiatrist who has continued to work as International Director in CNTW NHS Mental Health Trust. She is driven by a desire to continuously improve the care offered to everyone, particularly children and young people and their families, who need mental health support and treatment. This work is within the NHS as well as in other organisations both in the UK and internationally. In addition to clinical, academic and managerial work in the NHS she has served on a number of National bodies including the Council on Tribunals; NHS Litigation Authority; Advisory Board on Family Law; Family Mediation Standards Board; Voice of the Child, and National Child Contact Centres as well as publishing and teaching widely as an academic. She currently works in the charity sector as a trustee for Research into Practice (Dartington Trust) and has just joined Mental Health Matters. She is a Commissioner for the Archbishops’ Commission on Families and Households and Relate.

Whether or not you are involved in Growbaby, this event is an opportunity to be encouraged, challenged and propelled into your community with our thinking challenged and hopefully honed.

The event starts at 09:00 and finishes at 16:30. Lunch, tea and coffee all included.

Please book your ticket before the 10th September. Bookings after that time may be accepted but we need to know numbers for catering requirements.
