On Tuesday 8 April, Dr. Paul Gallagher and Aidan McNeill of WAVE Trauma Centre share their experiences on trauma, resilience, and post-traumatic growth, exploring how individuals can move beyond pain to find healing and hope.

The WAVE Trauma Centre has long been a pillar of support for those affected by the Troubles/Conflict in Northern Ireland. In addition to assisting survivors of Historical Institutional Abuse (HIA) since 2020, WAVE launched a new service in 2022 to support survivors of Mother and Baby Institutions, Magdalene Laundries, and Workhouses (MBMLW). Their holistic approach to healing emphasises not only surviving trauma but also thriving beyond it—a philosophy that resonates deeply with this year’s conference theme.

Free on Saturday why not join Embrace artist Deirdre Robb at Strand Arts Centre from 1.30pm-2.30pm where she is invitng people to get involved in making a worry tree and is part of C.S Lewis Festival 2017.

The worry tree helps us deal with worrying thoughts. We can spend many hours a day worrying about the past, the present and the future.

The worry tree is a project that allows the public to off-load their worries and fears which frees your mind to let positive thoughts inspire and refresh you.
