Our most recent peer education venture has just been completed and it involved training 5 Peer Educators through a British Red Cross H.I.V and A.I.D.S training programme.
5 young people attended a two day course on Thursday 12th August and Monday 16th August.
On day one, the 'informtion giving' part was covered, where the young people learnt a lot about the subject. On day two, the young people created a mural of their hard work and learning in the form of a wall hanging, this collated their learning.
Kevin Ditcham (Youth Worker) for the project organised this training project and would like to thank Davina Thompson (British Red Cross employee) and Chris Fairgrieve (British Red Cross Volunteer) for all their efforts.
Our 5-strong peer education team has now been set up with vital information which they can hopefully transfer to delivering their own peer education projects.
Our new team of peer educators includes:
-
Daniel McCann
-
Kieran Hume WATCH OUT FOR THEIR WORK AROUND
-
Felicity Tunnard BERWICKSHIRE SOON!
-
Chloe McGregor

Rosie Jamieson
