We provide training to front line professionals/ service providers who are supporting women who sell or exchange sex, aiming to raise awareness, support staff and help combat issues associated with stigma. 


The following training elements are included:

 
Supporting women who sell or exchange sex
•  Overview of our outreach service - The Esther Project (TEP)
•  The reasons why people might sell or exchange sex
•  Spectrum of choice
•  Risks
•  Signs
•  Stigma
•  Communication - equipping staff and new approaches
•  Helping women stay safer
•  Signposting and other resources/support
 
Our training can be adapted to suit your needs but is best delivered face to face, in a three hour session, around the table with individual participation encouraged.
