And that’s a wrap on #STANCE2026

A massive THANK YOU to all of our fantastic keynote speakers, workshop hosts, exhibitors, venue staff at COSLA, and most importantly, every single delegate who joined us today!

We’ve loved bringing together people from across care, education ...and clinical practice to share experiences, exchange ideas and reflect on how we can continue to improve our support services.

As our workshop sessions draw to a close at #STANCE2026, our final spotlight is on 'Creating Cultures of Safety: Restraint Reduction'.

Christopher Docherty from Safe Crisis Management Europe, accompanied by Robert Mollon, is exploring the importance of proactive de-escalation, ...ethical practice and building safer environments across social care and education.

The session encourages practitioners to look beyond simply managing challenging behaviour and consider how we can reduce physical intervention while responding to distress with greater understanding and care.

Shining a light on another of our afternoon workshops at #STANCE2026

We have Laura Ross from Scottish Attachment In Action and Laura Lawlor from West Lothian Council introducing 'Wee Breathers', an attachment-informed and trauma-sensitive reflective supervision programme.

This session explores how protected spaces for reflection can help practitioners process the emotional demands of their roles, protect their own wellbeing and build stronger relationships with the young people they support.
