This is a free course facilitated by Jessica Pons for Manchester Mind
3rd, 10th and 12th October, online 12.30-5.30pm
Outline:
- What is Peer Support? – Intentional Peer Support Ethos & Values
- An Introduction to Models of Distress
- Sharing your Experience in a Trauma-Informed way
- Facilitation of a Peer Support Group (and how it differs to other types of groups)
- Launching & Sustaining a Group
It’s experiential so although there are slides, we’ll have lots of discussions with the aim of developing self-reflective skills throughout. If you want to know more, please email me and I can let you know how I facilitate it.
‘The training was both eye opening and informative, it has really given me food for thought and I will recommend this training to everyone.’
‘I’ll take away with me how excited I am to have joined such a group of wonderful people, how I want to grow as a peer support facilitator in the coming years and a lot of this is down to my own confidence’
