How to Avoid and Recognise Abusive Relationships
Funded by Your Best Freind Fund
These workshops are aimed at women girls and nonbinary people aged 14- 25. We will look at red flags and suggest ways to recognise abuse. The workshops involve making 'Zines'to highlight personal responses and outline the main themes.
We will do several sessions at our beautiful green space in Wallasey Merseyside. We also have some sessions online.
Funded by 'Your Best Friend Fund.' These workshops are free.
Relationships can make or break us, many of us have been disturbed by toxic relationships and manipulative people. This program looks at how we can look after ourselves and look out for other people.
The course is a mix of accessible psychology and art process.
The workshops are facilitated by Paula Staunton and Lo Tierney.
Please email to inquire and get the full program.
Groups, schools and organisations are welcome. We may be able to deliver sessions at your venue.
