Empower Attachments

Helping children with early life trauma make sense of their sensory world.

We know that children who’ve experienced early life trauma need more than just care—they need connection. Our attachment-informed sensory intervention packages give families, foster families and residential homes practical ways to help children feel secure, manage emotions, and build trusting relationships.

This approach is rooted in evidence-based practice, recognising the unique experiences of looked-after children and offering practical tools, our approach supports both the child and the adults who care for them.

Whether you’re a residential home seeking specialist support, a foster parent navigating attachment challenges, or an adoptive family looking to strengthen bonds, our interventions are designed to empower you and the children in your care, creating lasting, positive outcomes.​​

Designed for foster carers, adoptive families, and residential care settings, our training packages cover the following:
