Hearing Voices Group Facilitation Training with Jacqui Dillon – 4 full day training course on 24 November, 1, 8 and 15 December 2025.
Following on from earlier successful online courses over the last few years, we are pleased to announce that Jacqui Dillon (https://www.jacquidillon.org/) will be running another online Hearing Voices Group Facilitation & Network Development Training course over 4 full days, on 24 November, 1, 8 and 15 December 2025, from 10.00 am – 5.00 pm each day (with a 1 hour break in between).
HV Support Groups offer a space where voice hearers feel safe, accepted and comfortable in sharing their experiences of voices, visions, tactile sensations and other unusual experiences and perceptions.
The course is aimed at people with lived experience, mental health staff and others who want to develop the knowledge, skills and attitude necessary to facilitate a Hearing Voices Support Group, and who are in a position to set up a Hearing Voices Support Group or join an existing group. Facilitators will also learn and experience ways to assist voice hearers to help and support each other, to exchange information, and to learn from one another. The course adheres to and works according to the values, principles and practices of the International Hearing Voices Movement.
We particularly welcome applications from people who hear voices. Please note, that we encourage people who have developed a working relationship with their voices to apply, as training and group facilitation can be demanding.
We also welcome joint applications.
Places on the programme are limited to 25 and will be allocated on the basis of:
- the details provided in the application form
