EVERY CHILD DESERVES TO KNOW THEY MATTER
A year-long programme that goes beyond belonging to create a culture where every child knows, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that they matter.
Build relationships children and adults trust and feel safe within
Develop a shared language around belonging and mattering
Create and embed tangible and measurable impact
Belonging isn't what we do... it's what children feel.
Because children and young people don’t experience our intentions.
They experience us.
And that experience shapes what they believe about themselves.
When that experience is consistent, human and grounded,
it becomes something even deeper than belonging –
Mattering.
“Jaz’s video keynote make our entire staffroom howl with laughter and dab away tears. It was so powerful.”

THE EVERYDAY HEROES PROGRAMME
A proven year-long programme led personally by Jaz, combining keynotes, workshops and ongoing support all for the cost of a single conference booking!
1. Shift thinking in a single day
Conference keynote and workshops that inspire immediate change
Already planning your next event?
Instead of a single keynote, you get a full day with Jaz shaped around your theme.
This could include:
A keynote to open or close the day
Interactive workshops for all staff or smaller groups
Meet and greet or book signing
VIP Q&A sessions with leaders
Creating content for your school or trust to use afterwards
We build the day around your people.
So it’s not just a day but a transformative shared experience that lands, connects and carries forward into practice.
2. Keep the work alive with 12 months of support
Access to the Belonging & Mattering Library
This is the part that makes the difference.
12 months access to a practical, ready-to-use library supporting both adults and young people. Including:
Jaz’s hard-hitting and heartfelt humour comes through in a years worth of short videos for adults to use in their training
Slide decks for CPD and training
Reflection tools and journals
YOUmatter – a collection of videos recorded by Jaz for young people, responding to real challenges they are facing
#JustAskJaz – practical answers to the questions Jaz is asked about navigating trauma as a child and an adult
This isn’t content that sits on a shelf. It brings about real and measurable change.
3. Turn powerful moments into consistent everyday practice
Live virtual reflection sessions and ongoing support
Across the year, you get two Jaz-In-Your-Pocket sessions. A chance to dig deeper, ask questions and process live challenges through dedicated reflection and Q&A sessions.
These are honest, grounded conversations about what’s working, what’s not and what needs to shift.
A space for your staff to ask questions, reflect on real situations and to build confidence in how they respond.
We use Jaz’s book as a shared reference point, helping teams reconnect to the message and apply it to everyday practice.
Because it’s not about getting it perfect.
It’s about building consistency, one conversation at a time.
4. Create a shared story that shapes your whole culture
Because of You, This Is Me for every participant
Every member of staff receives a copy of Because of You, This Is Me
This becomes the thread that runs through the programme.
A shared story.
A shared language.
A shared understanding of the difference one adult can make.
It gives your team something to return to.
In conversations.
In reflection.
In the everyday moments that matter.
Because culture doesn’t change through policy alone. It changes through the stories we hold and the ones we choose to live out every day.
From one teacher to another…
