This course will cover:

Thanks to generous funding from the Tudor Trust we can offer these courses for only £50 for each adult worker and £10 for each young person attending the course. This price not only includes the training but also all meals and refreshments during your stay and one night's accommodation in one of our en-suite bedrooms at Trafford Hall.
There is a small grant fund attached to this programme so after completing the course you will have the opportunity of applying for a grant of up to £500 to help your community project
progress.
