Trauma-informed practice (TIP) is based on the understanding that trauma exposure can significantly impact both individuals’ development and life chances. This is as well as the ability to feel safe or develop trusting relationships, and can also affect communities. TIP requires practitioners, organisations and systems to look beyond presenting behaviour. We should be asking, ‘what happened to this person?’ rather than ‘what is wrong with this person?’.

Becoming Trauma Informed Hull has brought together a network of individuals and organisations with national funding from the Changing Futures Programme to support Hull becoming a trauma informed city.

We’re taking the first steps in our journey, and we hope you will join us.
