Can there be a happy ending? - Transitions & multiple disadvantage

 Registration is closed for this event
Join us for a free online event exploring key learning and good practice on supporting people facing multiple disadvantage effectively through the ending of relationships of support.

 

The event will focus on two main perspectives around endings:

Closing down time-limited support services

Focusing on the required preparation for the end of time-limited services and projects, this session will explore practical tips and recommendations to support service users through the process of service closure more effectively. This will include a presentation by CFE Research of the findings from their recent Fulfilling Lives national evaluation report “Closing down beneficiary support projects”.

Psychologically informed endings

This session will focus on the ending of relationships between service users and staff. It will draw on the experiences of service users, as well as literature from psychology and social work. It will consider different views of endings, why and how endings can impact on both parties, and how to have a psychologically-informed ending. The session will include interactive exercises and space for group discussion.

Audience: This event is aimed at professionals and volunteers from all sectors who support people experiencing multiple disadvantage.

Please note that it is PDU policy that people with lived experience of multiple disadvantage are invited to participate in all our events.

Attendance to this event is free of charge, but advance booking is essential. The session will take place over Zoom. Please make sure you can access this software before booking.
