Hedgehog Finds Her Voice is a book and so much more.
John and Diana were inspired to write this resource by their experience of supporting children and young people affected by trauma.

Hedgehog FInds Her Voice
We created Hedgehog as a resource to help tell the story of all children who feel their voices have not been heard.
Hedgehog Finds Her Voice is a 48 page illustrated story book designed to help young people feel heard. We created this story because children have told us that when they tell someone that something has happened to them, whether that is a crime or traumatic incident, they feel blamed, scared or their experience is not taken seriously.
Co-produced with primary aged children Hedgehog Finds Her Voice tells the real stories of children everywhere in an accessible way that gives children the confidence and tools to speak up.
As well as the book being available to buy we are running interactive workshops in schools that explore the themes of the story, and we have developed an educational resource pack with a range of activities that can be used to teach whole classes or in one to one interventions.

“Hedgehog Finds Her Voice is a rich resource for schools. Through Hedgehog’s story the children learn the importance of a trusted adult, of both listening and speaking out in times of trouble and can apply this to their own life through age appropriate activities. John’s skilful facilitation ensures safe exploration of this sensitive subject matter.” ~ Mrs K Moss, Headteacher Clearwater Academy.
