A project about creating safety with young people who are leaving, losing or changing faith. This work is bringing together research, practice and lived experience, working with national, regional and local partners to develop practice principles.

We are convening a learning event in Birmingham in Summer 2026 to grow our collective knowledge about this topic, reflect on practice and create helpful guidance for everyone.

Exploring the nuances of professional love within youth safeguarding, social care, education, and related professions, this project seeks to understand how to cultivate authentic relationships with young people amidst today’s structural challenges.

A group of researchers and practitioners have been collaborating on this project throughout 2025, and we have some exciting announcements for 2026!

At Resonant Collaboration, we believe in a human-centred, adaptive, and collaborative approach grounded in relational practice and learning. This project is exploring how the Human Learning Systems paradigm can help us to create welfare with young adults.

City of Doncaster will be the first place to test the Human Learning Systems approach to laying the foundations for Transitional Safeguarding. More local places to announce very soon!

A new, non-accredited development programme for youth work leaders, jointly run with London Youth, focusing on experiential learning and relational leadership to enhance emotional self-awareness and practical skills within their youth work settings.

This programme began in May 2025 with an initial run of four in-person workshops, three online experiential study group sessions, and two action learning sessions.
