Biography
Jim Rose has a long career in working with children and young people, including managing secure accommodation and a period as Professional Advisor to the Home Office on the placement and management of young people sentenced to long-term custody.
'Few people could provide an authoritative account of the changes in policy and practice that have occurred during the last decade concerning the detention of children and young people and place it within a practical guide for staff working within secure settings. Based on his vast personal experience of working with troubled and troublesome children growing up in closed institutions, Jim Rose has achieved that with great skill in this second edition of Working with Young People in Secure Accommodation.' - Fay Deadman, OBE, from the foreword
‘For those working within locked settings, this book will provide an invaluable source from which to draw knowledge, a way of approaching and living with young people and a point of strength and respite when an individual day has been especially difficult. However, this book should also be an essential read for all professionals who at any point in a child’s development are involved in the decision-making process that leads to secure accommodation.’ - Professor Sue Bailey, President, The Royal College of Psychiatrists, from the foreword to the first edition
