Kinship Care NI Launch New Grandfamilies Training Programme

A range of FREE training courses are up and running for kinship carers in the Antrim and Mid Ulster area.  Some of the training programmes will be delivered by Kinship Care NI while others will be delivered by other organisations, such as the Nexus Institute, the North Regional College, CMAC Academy, the Northern Trust and Parenting NI.  These organisations have a wealth of experience delivering training and many of their courses are accreditated.

This is a great opportunity for kinship carers to meet other carers from their area, make new friends and most importantly to have some fun.

You can download a copy of the Grandfamilies Matter Training Programme here, or if you could like more information on any of the training programmes or activities on offer, you can contact Charlene or Michelle on 028 94488202 or 028 79201566.  You can also email [email protected].

Our 'Caring for Kin' Project is funded by the Big Lottery Fund under the 'Reaching out Connecting Older People' Programme.
