Topics include 'harm reduction', 'anxiety and our reactions', 'boundary setting', 'identify & self-esteem' and more.

They are currently recruiting for their provision and have places available which may be suitable for your participants. They are just finalising the Stirling venue and the dates and I will share this as soon as I have it.
