General Info

👥 Course numbers

Due to some of the sensitive subjects of our courses, we limit numbers to 16 people. We want everyone to feel safe and our instructors can help if people find some bits particularly difficult.

✍️ What’s the course like?

Learning takes place through a mix of presentations, group discussions and workshop activities.

We provide a very safe learning environment and are trained to support you throughout the course. If you don't feel comfortable joining in certain bits, then don't, we won't make you do something you aren't comfortable with.
