Wed, 09-Aug-2023Rachael AshwoodBrilliant course for both support workers and those hiring support. Critical information and helpful guides to those who are both new and have been supporting individuals for some time. Strongly recommend this as an essential course for any support worker, for both themselves and to also inform those they may work for. -
