Upcoming Events

Our next SCLWN peer support event on Tuesday 5^th November from 10-11.30 will focus on trauma and vicarious trauma and will be led by Fiona Douglas from the Health Promoting Health Service at NHS  Lanarkshire.  Fiona has worked in the field of psychological trauma for over two decades, in both public and third sector organisations. Fiona’s current role at NHS Lanarkshire’s Health Promoting Health Service team involves the co-ordination, writing, delivery and ongoing coaching surrounding the implementation of the Transforming Psychological Trauma national initiative. More information can be found here.

During this session, we will be looking at psychological trauma from a number of perspectives: the clients’, our own, and that of our colleagues. Community link workers have such a wide remit and take a holistic approach.  Psychological trauma is a common feature of the caseloads that are carried. During the workshop Fiona will have a focus on vicarious trauma and burnout.
