There are three different memberships to choose from, depending on your requirements – we recommend the whole home membership for smaller organisations, or if you’re part of a large organisation contact us for a bespoke quote.
All members can attend our regular 1-2pm slot on a Wednesday every week with bite-size training, specialist learning, regular news and an itinerary of guest speakers covering a whole range of subjects. Over the course of the year this is 50 hours of CPD! You’ll also benefit from discounted individual training places (usually 25% cheaper) and free initial safeguarding and regulatory advice as well as our valuable bulletin.
Individual membership is only valid for the named individual and suitable for someone self-funding or working alone.
Whole home membership opens up individual membership to everyone in your children’s home, providing up to 50 hours of continuing professional development every year in bite-size chunks. As many of your team as you wish can join the sessions, or you can pick particular subjects you think will be of most interest. Your whole team benefit from the training discounts and you are entitled to a 10% discount on training and consultancy fees.
Whole organisation membership works like whole home membership, but covers everyone in your organisation. We scale this depending on the size of your endeavour and it works out cheaper than each having whole home membership, so feel free to get in touch for a quote
Complaints & Whistleblowing services are available to whole home or organisation memberships and provide an opportunity for your staff, families or young people to speak to someone outside of the organisation. This is most useful in small organisations where people (or the regulator) may be concerned there isn’t anyone sufficiently independent to listen to a concern. Get in touch for more details or to make your whistleblowing or complaints service live
