Well Done to our Resettlement Team, we are extremely proud of you all, for winning the Team of the year at the HMPPS Staff Awards. This was for all the hard work you put into changing the lives of young people in our care #teducingreoffending

It's #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek! Here at Cookham Wood we're encouraging our staff to take time out of their day to check in with each other, promote staff support services and debunk myths around mental health 💚

We're celebrating Sports Week with @Novuschange and @sportsconnectUK by promoting physical, mental & social wellbeing while celebrating the joy of sports & athleticism within our community. These events help our young people build teamwork, communication & accountability skills.

Happy International Women's Day to all the incredible women who continue to inspire, lead, & make a difference every day @HMPCookhamWood. Their vital work provides secure & decent care for our young people while maintaining public safety.

Good Luck to all those attending the YCS Staff Awards today where we're recognising our operational staff working across the youth estate who go above and beyond to deliver decent, safe and secure care for children and young people in custody. #RecognisingGoodWork #WellDone

This week colleagues across the youth estate met to for the First Family & Significant other day and the only question we asked was Why wouldn’t we? Together we can help to maintain and strengthen ties with whom they call family @Sandywat

#TimeToTalk day is about having conversations with family, friends, or colleagues about mental health to help reduce stigma & create supportive communities. That's why we're encouraging staff to have open conversations about mental health, debunk myths & promote support services.
