Hello Dr Jones, I hope you receive this message. I came across your pod cast During covid. I started working in Learning Difficulties ( Special Needs) thirty years ago and I was trained the Active Support ( Positive Behaviour Support) I saw it transform the lives of people. Later I came to work in mental health and continued to support people in the same way. Again I had the same experience seeing people's lives change and becoming more confident and skills developing, it really has transformed lives. Some people with less anxiety went on to work either voluntary or paid. I am now a coach and mental health facilitator and trainer. I see many support workers leaving the job because they do not see change in peoples lives. I have had a skills center for 23 years using many different activities. I also work with a family who have a son with Special Needs my input has really helped the family understand how to help their son have a happier life. I fully agree with this way of working ,and would like to train others in this way of working. My forty years in working in social care has given me many skills, I would like to train others in this way of working. I am in the process of setting up another contact and training center and would appreciate being able to gain more knowledge and training to pass on to others. I live in Manchester my email is making.a.difference.tameside.@gmail.com mob 07419295873 Janice Hogg - Mental Health Facilitator, coach and Trainer.
