Supporting Older People

This two-day NCFE accredited programme focuses on the individual support needs of older people who have experienced sexual violence to ensure specialist practitioners have the skills and knowledge to support them and their families/carers appropriately.

This programme has been developed by LimeCulture in partnership with Age UK, the UK’s leading charity for older people, and will cover:

  • Defining older people
  • Preconceptions and misconceptions about ageing
  • Barriers to disclosing and reporting
  • Physical and mental health issues
  • Communication with adults at risk
  • The Mental Capacity Act
  • Understanding and responding to the specific support needs of older victims/survivors of sexual violence

The next training course will be held on Thursday and Friday 2 & 3 May 2024. 

All delegates will be required to complete a written assessment as part of this accredited course.

We encourage you to get in touch with us directly if there are further adjustments you may need to support your learning and/or participation.
