COVID-19 diaries

SHS Practitioners are incredible, resourceful, resilient people that make a big difference in the lives of disadvantaged children and their families. Despite schools closing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our frontline key workers continue to make a huge impact and provide a vital lifeline. Throughout the national lockdown, as our staff begin working remotely, and as the families we support faced new challenges, we asked some of our team to keep a diary of their work.

The following blogs and vlogs provide valuable insight into how our experts support young people and families during this unprecedented time.
