Therapeutic Activities

The Therapeutic Activities programme will help you to become more effective in many areas of your work and will help staff to gain a better understanding of what activity provision is and how simple everyday activities can be therapeutic and have an impact on our mental health. The relationship between engagement in everyday activity and well being will be explored. Learners will be guided through supporting the assessment, planning, implementation and evaluation of activities, including the skills and knowledge required to provide an inclusive and person centred service.
