Events

Members of the team at Seaview who have experience in delivering training agreed to support a group of people with lived experience of substance misuse to develop their own training programme, raising awareness about drug and alcohol-related issues among the wider workforce. Thanks to a small grant awarded and support from Dr Daren Britt, Principle Lecturer in Criminology and substance misuse at Brighton University, Seaview were able to recruit the peer trainers who developed training with a unique lived experience perspective with support from some experienced trainers. The result is Connect, lived experience drug and alcohol training.
Please send an email to [email protected] to reserve a space.
