Training

Caring for someone with dementia

The Carers Trust has free online courses about caring for someone with dementia.

Caring for someone with mental health issues

The Dorset Recovery Education Centre provide free training courses if you’re caring for someone with mental health issues. The courses are mainly held out in the community, so you should not have to travel too far to attend.
