CHA Conference 2026
The bMindful Psychology team had a brilliant two days attending the Children's Homes Association (The CHA) Conference 2026 in Birmingham in October!
We’ve loved chatting with so many attendees, interviewing incredible people with powerful stories to share, and listening to some truly inspiring talks. It was also an opportunity to catch up with our current residential clients and connect with lots of new people who share our passion for supporting children and young people.
The CHA works to support, represent and strengthen the children's residential care sector across England and Wales. As a member-led organisation, the CHA bring together providers, professionals and stakeholders to share knowledge, address challenges and contribute to decisions affecting residential childcare - something the conference does beautifully.
We were also delighted to have met Dr Dan Hughes one of the most influential voices in trauma-informed practice.
Dr Dan Hughes developed the PACE approach to support recovery from developmental trauma however, it is a tool that can be utilised with anybody who is dysregulated. PACE is one of our most popular training courses.
A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to speak with us and share their experiences. We’re leaving with plenty to reflect on and some wonderful connections.
Here's a short film from our time at the CHA Conference 2026.
