If you have a desire to take A Touch of Gentleness out into a community, or can bring it into your workplace, then the Contribution to Your Community training day is for you.

This full day’s training runs from 9.45 to 4.30pm and primarily focuses on the three pillars of ‘A Touch of Gentleness’.

1) The energy of Gentleness.

2) The emotional and physical benefits of touch along with a beautiful hand massage.

3) Deep listening skills with gentle presence.

The day also includes safeguarding, stories, and discussions about what’s next.

It has been designed to be experiential, theoretical, practical, fun and is grounded in best practice.

Our intention is that there is something for everyone and that it will be a lovely experience for all who attend.

On completion of the day you will be fully trained, equipped with the muslins, cream and tabard,  insured and supported so that you are able to offer our service out in your community. You will also have access to full membership benefits.
No previous experience is necessary nor is there a specific amount of time required for volunteering.

The day’s training is offered freely, though we warmly welcome any donation that you are able to make. Donations help ensure that we can continue to run trainings, support and equip all our volunteers.
