Finding your voice as a Carer
For anyone in a caring role who would like to develop their confidence and gain assertiveness skills to support them in everyday situations.
Students will explore their own levels of confidence and assertiveness, how they can include assertive behaviours in their everyday life and develop tools and strategies to support their confidence.
They will discuss the benefits of using assertive behaviour particularly when communicating with professionals involved in their caring roles.
