For young people with learning disabilities?
Would you like to develop skills and confidence in leading conversations with young people and families about end of life care?
IF SO OUR TOOLKIT AND COMMUNICATION WORKSHOP IS FOR YOU
The University of Surrey and Health Education England Kent, Surrey and Sussex are developing a new education package called the ADVANCE programme. It is aimed at helping those who work with people with learning disabilities and their families to communicate ethically and effectively about making an Advance Care Plan. This enables people to have control and choice about their end of life care.
The ADVANCE programme consists of an Open Learning toolkit and a communications workshop lasting approximately two hours.
The Toolkit and workshops are free to use and attend and we are running these across Kent (in Canterbury), Sussex (in Brighton) and at the University of Surrey (in Guildford). Attendees will receive a certificate of attendance.
If you would like to attend, please email Matthew Peacock – m.peacock@surrey.ac.uk
