Parenting 2000 have a new course starting on Sept 9th called Mindful Futures. It is a six week course taking place online on Wednesdays (9.30-2.30).
We will have 4 cohorts over the course of the 2020/2021 which will always follow school half terms to help those with school-aged children.
The course is for people who would like to gain employment, return to work or are interested in training but are struggling due to having low confidence or feel anxious about making those first steps. Each week we will be looking at how to feel well enough to make that move using a combination of teacher led sessions, creative arts, project work and mindfulness whilst encouraging plenty of peer led support- we are aiming for a nurturing space with no judgment (both teachers are also therapists).
A Zoom link will be sent to the learner which they can use on a phone/tablet or laptop. All the resources they need will be sent in the post or couriered, including an art pack for the creative workshops. If internet access is an issue, we can provide a dongle.
We have run other courses successfully on line over lockdown so are confident that Mindful Futures will work well in this way too.
Enrollment appointments are available on Friday (11th) and Tuesday (15th) between 10-2- enrollment can be done on line or in person.
Course starts Wednesday 16th September from 9.30am - 2.30pm then every Wednesday for 6 weeks
To be eligible you have to be over 19, live in Merseyside and be unemployed (with the right to work in the UK). Lunch and travel expenses (on public transport) are provided.
