Free training from the Good Practice Mentor programme

The Good Practice Mentor (GPM) programme is a new and innovative project that brings together legacy, learning, and resources from Ageing Better: a seven year Test & Learn project that worked to reduce social isolation and loneliness in people aged over 50, and engaged more than 150,000 people in over 366 projects.

The GPM team includes South Yorkshire Housing Association, Age UK Camden, and Leeds Older People Forum. Each partner brings a unique set of learning and skills to the project, and together they offer a wide range of training, bespoke support for your organisation, and toolkits and resources to help you on your journey to reducing loneliness and isolation.

They offer a range of free, online training sessions on topics including:

  • Warm welcome techniques.
  • Person-centred approaches.
  • Supporting people living with dementia.
  • Conversational strategies for talking about loneliness and isolation.
