Support positive attachments for children and young people

Watch the video titled ‘Attachment theory and foster children’ from Community Foster Care. In the film Christina Saltmarsh, a child psychotherapist, explains the premise of attachment theory and how it can be seen in the possible behaviours of foster children. Christina explores the differences between secure attachment and insecure attachment. Using a roast potato analogy, she explains some of the 'why?' behind some common behaviours displayed by looked after children.
