“I learnt how to improve my resilience and how to bounce back: it proved particularly useful when we went through an outbreak in the home.”
Peer Support Workers
Our Peer Support Workers Training and Support programs are running successfully in hospitals and charity settings with equally successful outcomes and grateful participants.
Many trusts and organisations are providing new support for their PSWs as the demand on wellbeing hubs increases. Our training and support packages bring new strategies and perspectives to the role resulting in more confident, skilled and resilient PSWs.
“The course made you think deeper and find your own strengths and weaknesses.”
