Social Inclusion Training Pack (NDTi)

IconThe Social Inclusion Planner has evolved...

A Training Pack for Front Line Staff teams

We spent ten years listening and analysing the things you do to support people participate in community life. We fed the learning into training sessions for thousands of people in hundreds of organisations, and learnt some more. We built all it into a software package, and listened again as people wrestled with technical difficulties with the way the materials had been presented. The core ideas have now been formed into a training pack containing practical exercises, a worksheet, study cards and an extensive reference list. Apart from a pen or pencil, you need no fancy equipment to access over 100 ideas, stories and hints.

This pack, supported by your ability to learn, adapt and innovate, will broaden your repertoire and help you to do the right thing at the right time for each person you support. You will learn about new ways to offer support to individuals and communities so that they can get along together and enrich one another's lives.

The Social Inclusion Training Pack is available from the National Development Team for Inclusion, price £20 plus £5 p+p (postal charges to countries outside the UK may vary). People make best use of it when it they complete our training Strategies for supporting individuals to build connections and receive a copy of the pack at the end of the day.

Contact the NDTi office to place your order for the training day and/or the Social Inclusion Training Pack.

The Outcomes Star and The Recovery Star

IconThe Outcomes Star is an approach to measuring change in the lives of vulnerable people. These measurable changes are usually referred to as outcomes. The Outcomes Star can be used as part of the key working process and is easliy integrated with mental health assessment, planning and review processes.

This approach is described in the Outcomes Star.

The Outcomes Star and a newer development, called the Recovery Star, are being compared in Bromley by several Develop partner organisations. To find out more see Develop's Research & Development pages in due course.
