You will not be enrolled on the course until you have spoken with one of the tutors from the Peer Coaching Service.
Being in a peer role involves providing support to other people who share a common experience. In this course, we continue to explore peer opportunities and the benefits and challenges of peer roles. We will support you to understand your skills, values, strengths and knowledge and how they could support your journey into peer working/volunteering.
Together we will consider working with others including fostering empathy and taking a non-judgemental approach. There will be a discussion on self-care and self-respect and safe and core practices which are vital in peer roles. We will also support you to consider your next steps into peer opportunities and your future development.
