Training

We offer bespoke training on many areas, for example, Personality Disorder, Transgender Awareness, Mental Health First Aid and the Impact of Substance Misuse on the whole family.

After the meeting I feel re-energised, and the session has really topped up my ‘happy’ - which I really needed.
I loved Kat’s analogy about the magician hat and scarves. I will definitely be using that to explain my feelings of being overwhelmed by my triggers at times - and the subsequent deluge of negative thoughts and emotions, affecting my emotional and physical mental health recovery and wellbeing, all knotted together in a constant stream of multicoloured mayhem. - Amanda Worthington

We regularly run:

• Pre Peer mentoring Training

• Confidence Building courses

• Involvement training

• Peer development pathway training

I have really enjoyed the recent Peer Pathway Training.  I have been trying to undertake this training for some time but it is usually held in Welwyn which is very difficult for me to access as I live quite a distance away and am dependent on public transport so I was very pleased when Viewpoint offered this training via video conferencing technology.  The group has been a wonderful mixture of informative teaching, interesting small and large group discussion, video and our presentations to each other.  I was very anxious at the thought of presenting but this quickly melted away as the presenters and group were all so friendly, encouraging and supportive.   I very much hope that Viewpoint continues using this media as it really makes training more accessible.  Thank you Viewpoint. - Gwendolyn Ball
