Me first training
Our online, interactive, communication training is beneficial for all health and social care professionals who work with children and young people.
It will help you to…
- Have more confidence when tackling tough conversations with children and young people, their parents and colleagues
- Use a Me first communication model to support conversations and encourage shared decision-making
- Embed changes in your professional practice through group discussions and role play scenarios
- Develop a child-centred approach to communication so that children and young people are fully involved in negotiations about their care
- Connect with a network of healthcare professionals who encounter similar challenges and experience
The Me first Fundamentals is the Foundation level training course, which introduces you to the key principles of child and young person centred communication. Following this, you can book onto the advanced module: Me first Advanced Communication in Child and Young Person Centred Care (Formally called the Masterclass)
You can book directly onto our Conversations About Safeguarding Concerns, Conversations about Transition and Health Coaching courses without having to do the Me first Fundamentals Foundation module.
Me first Advanced Communication in Child and Young Person-Centred Care Health Coaching Conversations about safeguarding concerns
Conversations about Transition.
We can provide any of these in the form of in-house training for you and your colleagues, tailored to your requirements, including shorter workshops and bespoke courses.
We also run a Train the Trainer Programme. This can be a sustainable way to embed the key child and young person-centred principles of a Me first approach into your organisation.

Courses are FREE for GOSH STAFF. For Non-GOSH staff, there is a small fee.
