Social Inclusion Events

Many services aim to build social and community inclusion with the people they support but few achieve it. Usually this failure is not caused by communities being unfriendly but due to the way that services think about, plan for and support social inclusion.

For most people being a part of a community where they are welcomed, engaged and valued is very important. We know that good community relationships support better health and wellbeing, improve self-esteem and change our relationships with services.

For over 15 years we have been working alongside people who use services, staff teams and communities to develop a range of practical action and thinking tools that build and sustain real social inclusion.

Our workshops are aimed at anyone who would like to learn about leading-edge practice, policy and delivery strategies that have a real impact. Interactive in nature and challenging in thought, all our training is designed to improve opportunities for people to live an inclusive life.

Who should attend?

All workshops are open to people who work in and manage services, people who use services, family members, community organisers and leaders of community organisations. The tools and thinking have been drawn primarily from our work alongside people with learning disabilities, mental health problems and older people but is equally relevant for everyone.

How much does it cost?

The workshop costs £95 + VAT per delegate.

We also offer workshops for groups and organisations; please contact us for more information.
