Training for adults

In order to support those in the community who have connecting moments with young people, we have a series of training available to you.

These are accessible for any over 18s who have some contact with young people (this does not need to be in a formal and traditional ‘youth work’ role) and would like to broaden their skills in engaging with them.

Places have either been funded through the Youth Focus Suffolk programme and so are provided free of charge to you or they are available free of charge by the provider.
