Elevate Professional Development has been founded to support the development and capability of leaders within the children’s residential care sector. Drawn from Tom’s decades of experience in leadership roles and as a seasoned consultant and non-executive director, we foster growth and innovation in care environments. Tom’s journey—spanning direct work with young people, leadership at specialist providers like Young Foundations, and founding Ellison Lynd Consulting in 2022—reflects a deep commitment to enhancing support for Looked After Children and, in particular those with mental health needs.

 

Elevate have partnered with the National Association of Excellence in Residential Child Care to deliver a range of trainings aimed at the development of leaders in residential childcare. Our thoughtfully designed programs, from workshops to tailored training, are designed to inspire leaders to navigate challenges with purpose. Join our community to cultivate your leadership skills and contribute to a brighter future for children in care.
