Power Up!

We are the My Life My Choice Power Up! team. We offer Training, Easy Read and Consultation.

Training

Training event

Our Power Up! trainers with learning difficulties are available to train you and your organisation. Subjects include Disability Awareness, Disability Discrimination Act and Self Advocacy.

Social and healthcare staff training

We do this every two months. Our trainers make the sessions fun as well as informative. It really changes how staff think.

Here is what people have said about our training:

“Everything you have done is very remarkable.”

“I will remember to put people first and give people choices.”

“I learnt that people with learning difficulties have something to offer the community.”

“I will remember to ask people their opinions more.”

One-off training

We also do one-off training and talks. For example, we gave a lecture to nurses and students at Oxford Brookes University. And we are involved in Person Centred planning across Oxford.
