People with learning difficulties can
be good trainers. The Helping Each Other
For a Better World team is a group of people with learning
difficulties. They made a training pack and a course to help
people find better things to do.
The training pack is called Making Your Days Better.
The training team tried out the pack and course with three
groups of people with learning difficulties.
These are the things the training team found out.
The course worked well when people
knew each other and enjoyed working together.
Sometimes there were problems
in running the course.
There were ways of working which
helped things go better.
It is important to have the right
support from staff.
The course needs
to be long enough for people to learn things, and then
make changes in their lives.
