Creative Therapies Training

(Inclusive Arts Training Programme  - download)

Since 2000, we have offered training programmes targeted at social workers, care workers and teaching staff. We will continue to do this in the future but in a different way and on a smaller scale. This new approach is the outcome of recent focus group consultations. We will develop more bespoke training to take place concurrently with each project. This will enable the trainee’s to put into practice their new skills under the guidance of an experienced arts therapist.

We offer staff training sessions which are ideal for health workers, social workers and teaching staff to explore integrating art, drama, music and play with mainstream arts practitioners.

We employ art, drama and movement therapists who are Allied Health Professionals and members of the British Association of Art Therapists.
