Therapeutic Play – CPD Workshop

Our Discovering Play Trainer and lecturer at Sheffield Hallam University, Julia Sexton, will be exploring the therapeutic value of play for children, especially for expressing their feelings and communicating their experiences. This session aims to develop awareness of playwork, the approach to working with children that aims to support and facilitate the play process by introducing the ideas of the therapeutic element of playwork. It will explore key aspects of Therapeutic Playwork including the role of the playworker, playworker-child relationships and interactions, creating environments where playing children can feel valued and safe and reflective practice. 

This will be taking place at the Endeavour Centre (address below) in the Upper Hall. Refreshments provided.

Free for anyone living and working in Sheffield.
