The Reflection and Action Learning Forum Project Update

Year: 2024
Topic: Residential care
Author: Laura Steckley, Sarah Deeley and Gemma Watson

The aim of the Reflection and Action Learning Forum (RALF) is to provide a practical and evidence-based approach that supports members of the residential child care workforce to develop the necessary habits and skills associated with genuinely reflective practice.

The RALF model was co-designed by the Scottish Physical Restraint Action Group (SPRAG) as part of the group’s overarching commitment to help bring about a change in culture with regards to physical restraint and restrictive practice across the residential child care sector in Scotland.

This update describes activity during the first year of this two year project. The Promise Partnership awarded a grant for the RALF project, which started in the spring of 2023.
