Listening Training Programme

Everyone can learn how to listen well.

LWS’s Listening Training Programme has courses suitable for all ages. Being able to listen well is a transferrable life skill which has a positive impact on mental resilience, confidence and wellbeing.

In schools and youth groups, training in active listening for young people improves peer communication, addresses bullying and reduces stigma around mental health.
