About what the session was

For our first event will we look at this Open Access JCPP paper by Dr. Faith Orchard and colleagues; Orchard, F., Gregory, A.M., Gradisar, M. & Reynolds, S. (2020), . J. Child Psychol. Psychiatr.

Sleep expert Professor Colin Espie has written a blog on the paper blog. Faith has also kindly summarised the paper in this 5 minute video abstract, discussed it in more detail in this 10 minute podcast, plus we have a research digest.

ACAMH’s vision is to be ‘Sharing best evidence, improving practice’, to this end we are very excited to be launching ‘CAMHS around the Campfire’, a free live online journal club, run in conjunction with André Tomlin the @Mental_Elf. Thursday 10 December 17.00 UK, (USA – 12 noon ET, 11.00 CT, 09.00 PT).

Each 1-hour meeting will feature a new piece of research, which we’ll discuss in an informal journal club session. The focus will be on critical appraisal of the research and implications for practice. Primarily targeted at CAMHS practitioners, and researchers, ‘CAMHS around the Campfire’ will be publicly accessible, free to attend, and relevant to a wider audience.

A panel, comprising Dr. Faith Orchard, Professor Colin Espie, and a young person, will discuss the research and its implications. This discussion will be facilitated by Andre Tomlin (@Mental_Elf) who will also be posing the questions you post live online.

All you need to do to sign up to this free event is click on the Book Now button at the top of the screen and complete the form that follows. You’ll then receive an email confirmation and a link to the webinar, plus we’ll send you a calendar reminder nearer the time. Plus those ACAMH Members attending will be eligible for a CPD certificate.

We look forward to seeing you on the day.
