How to be a LiFT Facilitator?

The brilliant aspect of LiFT is that being a facilitator is really well supported! The programme comes with a workbook with step-by-step instructions and the entire programme is scripted. This means that your role as Facilitator is a great opportunity to build practice and confidence in facilitating a group, in a safe, structured and guided way. You do not need to come up with group content, or manage a group - instead you get to focus on the experience. 

So if you are thinking "I am not sure I can do it" we know you can - we believe in you. The programme is powerful and uses plain and simple approaches and languages to be accessible to all.
