Training in person-centred active support includes both study-based and hands-on components. This pack offers the study-based component. It can be used both by trainers working in a group situation and by individual staff stuyding for their own personal development or as part of a required training course.

This pack aims to enable front-line staff supporting people with learning disabilities to provide ‘active support’, providing enough help to enable people participate successfully in meaningful activities and relationships, irrespective of the level of disability of the service user or the presence of additional needs such as challenging behaviour.

The pack can be used in a variety of ways, including:
• as a training manual for in-house or external trainers to run courses
• as a resource toolkit for individual services and staff teams who want to improve the quality of their support to people with learning disabilities, for example, by using it in supervision and staff meetings
• by individuals engaging in reflective practice and continuing professional development.

Person-centred active support is comprehensive enough for individuals to use it without external trainers and still be able to meet the learning objectives.
