If your teenager is feeling overwhelmed about GCSE results this week, show them this grounding technique. It’s called the alphabet game – and it was a game changer for 16-year-old Kerry.

If your child starts to feel their breath getting quicker and out of control, this activity can help them to slow down their breathing and calm down. Breathing techniques can be a powerful tool to help us feel more grounded.

🎈 Play Isn’t Just for Fun — It’s How Children Feel Safe

Join us for Playful Parenting — a practical, heart-led workshop designed to help you:
✅ Understand your child’s big emotions
✅ Stay calm and connected during meltdowns
✅ Use simple, playful moments to build trust and co-regulation

💛 This session is perfect for parents of toddlers to early primary-aged children — especially those who are sensitive, strong-willed, or struggle with transitions.

🧸 Because when we play, we connect. And when we connect, everything starts to feel a little easier.

PARENT/CARER SURVEY

https://forms.gle/sSKwqjeDEmVXQksv9

How have the delays, changes and cuts to the Adoption and Special Guardianship Support Fund (ASGSF) impacted your children and your family? What does the future hold?

This is a chance to have your say.

Deadline is Monday 1st September but the sooner you complete it the better as it will inform ongoing discussions between our campaign and the sector.

We will be feeding these results back across the sector and of course to you all.

The more of you that complete it, the more meaningful the data. It should take you 5-10 minutes to complete and it could really inform the way forward.

Please do share with any parent/carer what’s app groups, Facebook and social media groups. Email it to those you know have been affected but don’t use social media etc etc.

PROVIDERS: It would also be great if you can share this with all of the families you see, via newsletters, websites, mailing lists and so on.

Parents and carers are often key to observing changing behaviours of their children as they know them best. They can see what may be out of character or what may be unusual behaviour. The question we can ask ourselves is what is behind this and how can we help. Early recognition, if there is a known problem, worry or emotional struggle and search for support can be valuable to them and you, as parents/carers.

Come and join us tomorrow for our last coffee and natter meet up until September.

These meet ups are a brilliant opportunity to meet others who understand without judgement, others who just understand.

They are also a great way of getting information and sharing support.

Oswestry based Therapeutic Service for Children and Young Adults

Play Therapy
Home / Play Therapy
Play is children’s primary form of communication. Children tell us about their inner world through play long before they are able to link words to their experiences through language. Through play, children can experiment with, process and master different skills and experiences. They form a sense of who they are, whilst learning to understand that other people can be different from them. Relationship skills, such as being able to trust, respect, empathise, share and co-operate with people, can be developed through play.

Play Therapy is an effective therapy based on the belief that children have an innate tendency to engage in play and that play is a natural way for them to communicate their thoughts, feelings, experiences and trauma, process and master painful or fearful experiences through the safety and psychological distance of play.

Rather than children having to explain what is troubling them, as adult therapy usually expects, children use play to communicate at their own level and at their own pace, without feeling interrogated or threatened.
