Supporting Positive Mental Health & Resilience in Long-Term Volunteers
Volunteer Now Enterprises Ltd
This day-long training will use the Community Resilience Model to provide organisations with practical knowledge that can be used by support staff, as well as by volunteers themselves, to increase resiliency and positive mental health.
The Community Resilience Model (CRM) has been used in over 20 countries to support individuals and communities impacted by stress, trauma and difficulties with mental health. The primary focus of CRM is to educate individuals about the biology of stress and anxiety, as well as teach simple biologically-based wellness skills which can help stabilize and re-set the nervous system. By helping people understand the impact of stress on the body and mind, and then learning how to work with their nervous system to foster resiliency, CRM provides a very practical, hands-on opportunity for people to build resiliency in their own lives and in those of their communities. CRM is being successfully used across a number of fields and sectors, including: international development, public health, reconciliation, community development, education, mental health, early years and policing and justice, with strong outcomes for both service providers and service recipients.
This one day training course will provide you with practical skills to support volunteers based on the six wellness skills of the Community Resilience Model.
This training day is £25 per person, and will include a light lunch.

National Energy Action (NEA) NIOnline / VirtualSeminarTraining/AdviceWorkshopThe UK government set out a target, enshrined in the Climate Change Act (2008), to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions across the whole of the UK by 2050. Decarbonising homes is central to achieving that target and there is an urgent need to address the carbon emissions produced in heating and powering domestic properties. While the electricity powering lighting and appliances is decarbonising fast, the majority of homes still rely on burning fossil fuels for heating, hot water and cooking. This course will provide an introduction to the role domestic scale renewable technologies can play in reducing carbon emissions. It will provide a non-technical explanation of how the technologies work, the factors to consider when installing these technologies, costings, potential carbon savings and their advantages and drawbacks.- - -NEA - NEW COURSE - Introduction to Domestic Renewable Low Carbon Technologies (Level 2 Award – CQ11641/001)
