Parent/Carer workshops

PARENT & CARER WORKSHOPS

We are UnLtd Social Enterprise Award Winners and work in partnership with Parent Carers Cornwall. We are proud to be able to provide training and support to the many families they represent across the county.

We offer 'RSE; Growing & Changing', 'Independent Living & Self Advocacy' and 'Positive Behaviour Support'  workshops for Parents and Carers

If we are to see the support network that the individuals we care for and educate need - then we need to be working in partnership with their families. 

These workshops offer accredited training and advice; they also offer parents a chance to meet and support each other and share experiences in a relaxing, informal environment.  

If you are considering inviting INSIGHT to provide training for your school or organisation - we can also provide a parent/carer workshop. 

If you would like to start your own workshops for parents, and feel some direction would help, then we can also provide courses that will give your team the confidence to run these types of workshops and have the parental involvement in place that makes any intervention successful.

Responding to Behaviours 
to de-escalate 

A workshop for parents and carers supporting children who present behaviours that challenge. 

The workshop is designed to offer strategies, develop confidence, knowledge and understanding when supporting those who find it difficult to self- regulate.

Relationships & Sex Education Workshop 

The 'growing & changing' workshop is for parents and carers of children with additional needs. 
Designed to improve the knowledge, skills and confidence in communicating with, supporting and educating children with additional needs about relationships, puberty, growing and changing and self-advocacy - in a positive, inclusive, safe and proactive manner.

Why parental workshops?

We are committed to the idea of a wide support network and that means getting the parents and carers of the individuals we support working alongside us as a team. 

The workshops we provide are hosted by members of the INSIGHT team who have a great deal of experience of supporting parents and carers as; Members of Parent Carer Council who are parents themselves, Family Liaison Workers, SEN teachers, FPA Speakeasy Facilitators, Chairs of EHCP reviews and autism advocates and consultants. 

From offering support or advice to delivering accredited courses, our parent/carer workshops are for all the family. 

Training options for you and the parents/carers of those you support.
