Freedom Programme FACILITATOR TRAINING

NEW - DVD Support Pack
The pack includes a DVD and a CD containing the updated facilitator manual. This is now available to assist all facilitators to refresh their memories prior to running a session. You can watch me doing it on the screen or even invite groups to watch me! It is particularly helpful to new facilitators or can act as a supervision aid.

Three Day Facilitator Training

The Facilitator Training teaches trainees how to run the Freedom Programme. It is very intense and lasts for three days. Each trainee receives a manual and two copies of Living with the Dominator. They must read the book before attending the training. It includes a performance of the play ‘LADY IN RED’ by Certain Curtain Theatre Company. Whenever space allows we invite local agencies to join us on the last afternoon for the performance free of charge.

For six months after the training all trainees are entitled to purchase ‘Living with the Dominator’ at a special discounted price.

We organise all three day training events and sell places directly. This means that organisations can purchase as few or as many places as they require for £450.00 each plus VAT.

One Day Training


ONE DAY AWARENESS RAISING TRAINING TO INFORM LOCAL AGENCIES ABOUT THE FREEDOM PROGRAMME.

These TARGETED events can be offered as a block booking. Organisations can commission me to run the day for a fixed fee of £2500.00 plus vat. They provide the premises and refreshments. They provide up to a maximum of 40 trainees. I provide 50 copies of Living with the Dominator and insist that all trainees read it before attending. Trainees do not receive a manual and are not equipped to facilitate the Freedom programme. However they will then be in a position to make informed referrals to the local Freedom Programmes. All trainees receive a certificate of attendance. In 2010 I will be organising one day events, advertising them on my web site and selling individual places.

We will be offering three One Day Training Courses

One day training on THE EFFECTS OF DOMESTIC ABUSE ON CHILDREN - download leaflet

This event provides information about domestic abuse and its effect on children. It assists child care professionals to improve their practice.

One day training on UNDERSTANDING DOMESTIC ABUSE

This event provides information about domestic abuse for professionals such as police officers who come in to contact with abusers or their victims. Trainees learn exactly what domestic abuse is and how victims are affected.

One day training on UNDERSTANDING SEXUAL VIOLENCE AND ABUSE.

As a man, I would not recommend that women read this book.... I would recommend that EVERYONE read this book!

Buy this book - it is fantastic!

This thought-provoking book is worth far more than its weight in gold

Wow! I couldn't put it down, read it all in one sitting.

Blew my mind and passed it onto colleagues at work - had similar effect on them too.

An eye opener - saw my ex-husbands there, saw their types...
