This is an introductory level 2 qualification, aimed at those who wish to become volunteer peer advocates.
As part of the course, learners will be introduced to the principles and processes that underpin peer advocacy; the potential barriers that individuals may face in trying to access peer support, and how to overcome these; as well as the importance of confidentiality and boundaries within peer advocacy, and how to recognise when other forms of support may be more appropriate.
This course is offered as a bespoke package for groups only. It can be adapted and tailored for different audiences, including both adults and young people.
