We recently received some excellent feedback from one of the participants on our Peer Worker Foundation course. With her permission, we are sharing it with you.
“The course has been amazing. I got a job yesterday and the things I learnt on the course really helped me to achieve this. The course facilitator sent a ‘good luck’ email to me beforehand. It made the world of difference.
The course had made me realise I have transferrable skills and I’m capable. I managed to control my self doubt and anxiety, which I wouldn’t have been able to do before doing this course.”
Our Peer Worker Foundation Course is an 8 week course giving the opportunity to share and develop skills and knowledge around the values that underpin peer support. An opportunity to identify personal strengths and positive qualities, whilst developing active listening skills, personal reflection and drawing on lived experience. Exploring types of resilience and working together to support, encourage and develop peer support. Through this course a peer group is formed, and new roles can be progressed within the community.
