Jan was such an inspirational family carer who helped develop and deliver our workshops.
As part of Jan’s legacy, we are running a free online Positive Behaviour Support workshop for families caring for children, young people and adults with severe learning disabilities whose behaviour challenges. Please note, this workshop is for family carers only.
The workshop is held in the spring each year. Dates will be confirmed nearer the time. Please check back in January 2024.
The workshop is delivered in 2 parts
Part 1: Understanding Challenging Behaviour
Part 2: Supporting Behaviour Change
Timings: 10am – 2.30pm
Invitation to join via Zoom link will be sent after registration.
Our workshops are friendly and non-judgemental. The workshops are delivered by a PBS trainer and a family carer co trainer, this gives a balance between theory and real life experiences. To get the most out of the workshops it is important to attend both sessions.

Positive feedback about our workshops tells us that they really benefit families and professionals, and formal evaluations have confirmed improvements in behaviour as well as in workshop attendees’ confidence and ability to respond to challenging behaviour.
