Programmes
Training to support you and your organisation.
Explore our range of evidence-based training programmes designed to equip facilitators with the tools and guidance to deliver The Body Project.
Each programme is tailored to support the unique needs of its audience while staying true to the research-backed approach that underpins The Body Project.
As part of our plan for sustainability of The Body Project in the county, we are offering free Facilitator Training to those working with the county’s young people. This includes educators, healthcare professionals, and community and charitable organisations. The training is for two full days; it is interactive and focuses on practical application and delivery.
Following feedback, for organisations who have more than 6 interested in training, we offer an alternative model where we can come to you and deliver over 4 x 3-hour sessions on-site at your location which may be more feasible given demands on staff time.
These training courses enable you to deliver the intervention within your own organisation, we also encourage you to join our Facilitator Community of Practice which gives you access to the Body Project materials as they are updated and keeps you abreast of latest research and adaptations. We also offer online support and a regular drop-in session to share experiences and challenges.
Please email [email protected] for more information.
If you are supporting young women in Gloucestershire, we may be able to run the intervention for you.
It is currently supported for delivery in the UK for those age 11-25.
The current delivery model is for 4 x 1-hour sessions with between session exercises for the girls to complete. These are an important component as they serve to increase the active component of the intervention.
The sessions are friendly and supportive and involve verbal, written and behavioural exercises, critiquing the ‘appearance ideal’ using motivational enhancement strategies.
We are able to offer evening delivery to accommodate schedules on request. All our facilitators hold an enhanced DBS and there is no charge for delivery.
Please email [email protected] for more information.
We are currently working on adapted materials for UK school-aged males.
