Training

The Borders Carers Centre always work in partnership. With health and social work, and with carers. This way, we can be sure that we are offering the training that carers want and that also recognises our committment to working as Partners in Care.

The Borders Carers Centre run regular training programmes for carers in different locations.

The last two were held at Galashiels and Kelso and covered a range of topics including 'How to get what you want', 'Save a life', Tai Chi, Emotrance and Aromatherapy. Our next courses will cover a great range of relevant training, including Managing Guilt, Oral health, Falls Prevention and Wellness Recovery Action Planning (WRAP)

We also have specific funding for Moving and Handling courses which can be carried out in your own home - particularly useful if you use tracks and hoists.
