Caring Friendships

Welcome!

This FREE video series has been made in partnership with 21 Together.

As a charity, all of our video lessons are totally free of charge to everyone. To help us keep building new content, there is a charge for schools/ college/ statutory bodies for the supporting resources to make your journey even easier.

Remember it’s accessible FREE of charge to families (click the link to get access!) and to delivery partners (local charities/non-profits)

So let’s get started!

Two children and an adult playing a board game on a wooden table with illustrated cards and game pieces.
A woman with blonde hair and a black sweater sitting at a table, holding a small brochure or card, in an indoor setting. There is a large screen or monitor behind her displaying a reflection of her face, and a window is visible in the reflection. The scene appears to be in a meeting or presentation environment.

We don’t stipulate the rate at which videos are completed, but we would suggest each video is used as a springboard for further discussion and activities that can be fully individualised for your learner or group.

You know your student best, so make sure you use the activities to personalise the activities and discussions for each of your students.
