Supporting Healing and Stability in Fostering and Adoption Through Trauma-Informed Care

We believe in the power of relational care to restore hope, rebuild trust, and nurture healing in every heart it touches.

Because every child has the right to feel safe at home

At Innovating Minds, we equip foster carers, kinship carers and adoptive parents with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to support children who have experienced trauma and mental ill health.

Our training is rooted in relational approaches and neuroscience, helping carers understand the impact of early adversity and build safe, healing environments for the children in their care.

But our support doesn’t stop with carers. We work closely with fostering and adoption services to embed trauma-informed practice across the organisation. We develop practitioners, supervisors, and leaders to provide consistent, compassionate, and evidence-based care.

Because every child has the right to feel safe at home

By focusing on the relationships that surround a child, we help create systems of care that reduce placement breakdowns, strengthen attachment, and improve long-term outcomes for children and families.

Together, we’re building safer homes and brighter futures.
