Being Assertive

Later this year PPF will start delivering a course on ‘Being Assertive’. This will replace the three big training events that are normally held in February, June and November.

Being assertive or assertiveness is a way of speaking up for yourself. When you are assertive you know how to say what you want without hurting anyone’s feelings, and without giving in.

The course will take place at The Plymouth Highbury Trust over six weeks. Each session will last two hours and groups will be asked to sign up for specific slots.

Attendees will be given weekly tasks to practise at home. Certificates will be awarded when you finish the course. We will be looking for self advocates to co-deliver the training - flyers to follow soon!
