Moving & Handling Training for Carers

17 Feb

We’re delighted to offer three Moving & Handling sessions in 2026 to support you in your caring role:

Friday 13 March 2026 | 10:00–13:00

Wednesday 22 April 2026 | 12:30–15:30

Friday 11 September 2026 | 10:00–13:00

These practical, supportive sessions will help you care safely while looking after your own wellbeing.

You will:

• Understand key principles of moving & handling and how to apply them at home

• Learn how injuries happen and how to prevent them

• Build confidence in safe everyday techniques (bed mobility, assisting with standing, short transfers)

• Try out small M&H equipment

• Get guidance from experienced McSence trainers

Please note: these sessions do not include hoist training or larger moving & handling equipment.

Places are limited so book early!

Sessions are in-person at Sycamore House.
