TRAINING

The Living Memory Association training is designed to help anyone who wants to work in reminiscence. It helps to develop groupwork skills and suggests creative activities and how to best use resources to stimulate memories.

These training sessions are regularly on offer at the LMAs premises in Duddingston. They can also be tailored to suit a group or organisation and delivered in-house. These range from how to set up a reminiscence group to using recording equipment and organising exhibitions of a group's work.

  • An Introduction to Reminiscence Work

  • Interview and Recording Technique

The LMAs trainer is John McCaughie. He has worked in the voluntary sector as a trainer and has many years experience of working in the reminiscence field. John is available to discuss training needs of individuals, groups and organisations and can be contacted at john@livingmemory.org.uk or by telephone on 0131-661 3222.
