About the Facilitators
Jill Worrall and
Diana East both have many years experience as adult learning facilitators and trainers. Their workshops are fun, very interactive and strengths-based, covering:
- Identifying participants' internal and external strengths;
- Examining the impact of caring and changes in relationships and lifestyles since taking on the caregiver role;
- Identifying one impact or change that each participant would like to work on.
- The concept of resilience and how that can be harnessed to improve the lives of grandparents and the children they care for.
Feedback from previous participants shows that positive learning experiences such as SALT really bolsters resilience and helps grandparents to cope better in their roles.
Numbers at each workshop will be limited to a maximum of 18 participants so you will need to register your interest quickly!
