  • A rewarding experience – Be part of a variety of different activities at our community centre, and meet lots of new local people.
What You'll Learn: 
  • How to communicate effectively – Adapt your approach to support people with many different activities and events within the centre.
  • How to provide a safe and welcoming space – Develop the skills to create an inclusive, encouraging environment.
