The Learning and Development Team offers a range of training opportunities to Penumbra staff and volunteers, as well as external organisations.

Recovery focused practice underpins and informs the design of our training courses. The courses we deliver include courses on Recovery in Practice, Wellness Recovery Action Planning (WRAP), Recovery & WRAP, Non Violent Crisis Intervention, Scottish Mental Health First Aid, Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training, Mental Health Awareness and Self Harm Awareness.

“It’s been great having a very people centred, person centred training. Really feel it gets back to a sense of working with people which sometimes gets lost in the task oriented world that we now live in”

“I have found that the training has provided me with a greater understanding of recovery. I now understand WRAP. The training was very reflective and made me think about my own wellness.”

Our training programmes are available externally and can be tailored to meet your needs. We offer high quality, innovative training at competitive prices.
