Strengthening the Core is for leaders in the voluntary sector who would like to build their collective and personal resilience. The programme uses a unique blend of discussion and movement to build on existing self-care, communication and emotional literacy skills, and improve people’s ability to respond to difficult situations from a well-resourced position.  

The programme runs for 2.5 hours once a week for seven weeks, drawing on ideas and practices from yoga, embodiment, non-violence and self-care. It has been put together in response to the lived experience of both the developer/facilitator, and many of her colleagues, friends, teachers and interviewees who have contributed to the project as a whole.  

KCSC is planning to develop a local programme but needs input, from those interested in participating, to design the programme.  If interested please complete this survey by Thursday 11 February 2021.  You can find out more about the programme here.
