What do we do?
Our Mission
I help professionals in education, social care and health create clear, trauma-informed and emotionally safe communication for children. Through training, consultancy and practical frameworks, Writing to the Child improves how organisations write to and about the children they serve.
Meet Rebecca
I’m Rebecca — an educational consultant, social worker and author of Writing to the Child. My frontline assessments were described by Ofsted as “amazing and trauma-informed”. I wrote Writing to the Child to give professionals practical tools to write in ways children can understand, feel safe with and return to throughout their lives.
