We have invested in interactive classroom technology to enable us to respond flexibly to the demands of these uncertain times with a focus on continued face to face study where possible and remote learning if required. This makes it possible for students in isolation to attend face to face groups remotely thus enabling teaching and learning to remain COVID safe for all and to minimise interruption from unforeseen circumstances.

Our centre philosophy is as follows:

• To provide a nurturing and ethical environment which invites positive personal growth.

• To provide teaching staff with the training, experience and continued counselling practice, along with the skills to inspire our students.

• To be accepting and respectful of difference and diversity.

• To empower students to reach their full potential.

• To listen to student experience and to learn as an organisation.

• To be guided by the BACP ethical framework for the counselling professions

• To be guided by the CPCAB in providing a quality learning experience and qualifications our learners can be proud of
