News and events Our latest graduates - New Beginnings Well done to everyone who completed Sheffield Mind’s most recent New Beginnings course at FURD (Football Unites Racism Divides)The 10-week course covers a range of topics including confidence building, strategies for dealing with stressful or unfamiliar situations, conversation skills and resilience. All the participants from FURD gave 100% and we were hugely impressed with the talent and skills they had to offer - they will go far this lot and we wish them all the best with the next chapter of their lives! Our partnership with FURD continues to develop and we were grateful to have staff member Keith Ward as co-facilitator for the sessions, having a familiar face at the start of the programme helped participants feel comfortable and safe.New Beginnings is perfect for anyone wanting to develop new skills that they can take into the community or workplace. Participants develop confidence and social skills and gain valuable experience of teamwork. The course is perfect for new starters or apprentices entering the workplace for the first time and we can tailor the course to suit your needs. If you would like to discuss options, we would love to hear from you. [email protected] Manage Cookie Preferences
