Listen to Support (online session)

Samaritans use active listening skills and techniques to support people experiencing emotional crisis, including those who are having suicidal thoughts. This course will explore some of those active listening skills and techniques so that participants will be able use them in supportive conversations with other people. We’ll also cover tips for starting a conversation with someone you might be concerned about, how to bring that conversation to a close when needed and – most importantly – keeping yourself safe throughout.

This is an excellent introduction to listening skills and is the perfect way to learn how to better support the people around you (while caring for yourself) and to also explore whether you might like to volunteer for Samaritans or other organisations.

This is a single 90 minute session.
