Pricing

The current pricing structure is for an introductory period, in acknowledgement of the partnership between Sandstories and the early adopters of this new iteration of the well-established Sandstories training.

Thereafter, the pricing structure will be reviewed, based on feedback from the early adopters/ licence holders.

The pricing structure has been calculated using market comparisons and based on the principle of making Sandstories workshops as affordable and accessible as possible to a wide range of training commissioners.

There is a sliding scale, depending on the size of the workforce to be trained. This can be discussed directly with Sandstories, via the website contact form.

As an example, a single school or a voluntary/community group would pay significantly less than a whole local authority, NHS Trust or a large MAT.

The illustrative figures below are based on a typical commission from a single public sector department or service e.g. children’s service early intervention team, health visiting team, police child abuse unit, CAMHS team etc.

If a multi-agency partnership (e.g. Children’s Safeguarding Partnership) purchases a licence, this can only be used for partnership multi-agency training events.

Learning outcomes

“Sandstories takes you on an emotional journey through the wilderness and beyond. The already impactful training has been re-created in such a sensitive way, where Sue creates a supportive environment for us to stop, reflect and plan how we can all strengthen our practice. I would wholeheartedly recommend this training. It is the most discussed and memorable training within our Local Authority and now with the format recreation, will remain so.”

Training and Development Officer

“Sue’s passion for Sandstories shines through in this film and she supports you through thinking about/reflecting on the children we have encountered. Having been part of the live training in the past and now watching the film, the impact of Sandstories remains as powerful. ”

Flying Start Childcare Lead

“I found the training via the film equally as powerful as when we had it face to face. It was done brilliantly and I feel that anyone who has the opportunity to experience it is very lucky. A huge well done for an amazing achievement – I could have watched it for hours.”

Family Support Team Manager

“Sue, you have created a training experience that is going to save countless children. Everything that I took from the training day is right there in the film. Your warmth, your passion, your urgency, your kindness, and compassion. It feels like the culmination of a career full of learning and wisdom – the way you tell this very disturbing story feels like you are holding us. ”
