• Are you a parent or carer who would like to take part in parent carer peer support training in children and young people’s mental health?

• Are you a service thinking about developing or already delivering a children and young people’s mental health parent carer peer support service for your area?

The Charlie Waller Trust invites you to join an information session to hear about how to access free training for a lived experience parent carer peer support (PCPS) worker and the service that supports them.

In this session, we will:

• set out a model of parent carer peer support

• discuss what the training programme involves and what it will offer parents, carers and the services who support them

• share the course details offered by University of Reading and University of Northumbria

• hear from parent, carer and training team representatives from the pilot parent carer peer support course 2022

• share further information about grants available to support the PCPS to undertake the training

• talk through the application process & application criteria

The PCPS training will commence in January 2023-full details about the training, application process and work the Charlie Waller Trust are doing around parent carer peer support can be found at https://charliewaller.org/parent-carer-peer-support/pcps-training
