Training sessions are all available in person or online, bespoke for your team or to join as part of our nationally available online programme.

Examples of past bespoke sessions include:

  • end of life care for refugees and asylum seekers

  • working with refugees and asylum seekers who are suicidal

  • safeguarding when working with refugees and asylum seekers

Concessionary rates are available for small charities and self-employed individuals. Please complete the bespoke booking form with your charity info and we will be in touch.
