Overview

This pack will ensure your Befrienders are ready for their role. Covers all befriending roles. Includes a Workpack Befrienders can use if you cannot deliver the training session immediately.

We have developed this pack, covering a three hour training session, in response to numerous requests. Befriending is the most popular volunteer role and it is vital volunteers are properly trained

This pack also contains a Workpack that potential Befrienders can use for self-study if you cannot organise a training session. It covers the same aims & objectives but obviously befrienders will not have the advantage of working with a group.

Objective

By the end of the session participants will:

- an understanding of who funds and refers to the befriending project
- identified the expected outcomes from befriending
- discussed the skills they will bring to the role
- defined the boundaries of their role
- explored situations that may arise in the befriending relationship
- formulated a checklist for getting support
