Community Workshops in Sheffield
As dementia experts in Sheffield, we’re passionate about making dementia education, health awareness and practical care training accessible to our local communities.
Dementia affects everyone – not just the person living with dementia, but their families, friends, carers, colleagues and wider support networks. Through our community training workshops in Sheffield, we share our specialist knowledge to help people better understand dementia and other important health and social care topics, supporting improved awareness, confidence and quality of life.
We have delivered community education and dementia awareness training to a wide range of local groups and organisations, including paramedic students, supermarket staff, Women’s Institute (WI) groups and legal teams.
Our workshops are designed to be friendly, informative and accessible, with sessions tailored to the needs of your organisation, workplace or community group.
Our community workshops in Sheffield and Barnsley are delivered by a member of our experienced team and cover a range of important health, wellbeing and care topics, including:
- Dementia and Alzheimer’s Awareness – understanding dementia, recognising signs and symptoms, and supporting people living with dementia.
- Fluid and Nutrition – understanding the importance of hydration and nutrition, particularly for older people and those receiving care.
- Parkinson’s Awareness – developing a better understanding of Parkinson’s and how it can affect individuals and their daily lives.
- Scam and Fraud Awareness – helping people recognise common scams and understand how to protect themselves and vulnerable adults.
- Moving and Handling – practical awareness around safe moving and handling and supporting people with mobility needs.
These informal health and social care training workshops provide an accessible introduction to each topic, making them suitable for community groups, charities, businesses, educational groups, professional organisations and local teams.
Workshops can be tailored to your group, including the length of the session, level of detail and specific areas you would like us to focus on.
Lunch & Learn Training for Legal and Professional Teams
Alongside our community workshops, we also offer Lunch & Learn sessions in Sheffield, particularly for legal and professional teams working with people who may require care and support.
Our Lunch & Learn sessions help strengthen understanding and links between the legal sector, social care and health and care professionals. Each session is bespoke to the needs of the team, with previous topics including:
- Unsafe discharge and its impact
- The corridor care challenge
- Delegated healthcare activities in social care
- AI in care – the future of health and social care
- Safeguarding and DoLS from a real-world perspective
