🥁🎶 Finding our rhythm at Ocean Choices CIC! 🎶🥁

Our learners had lots of fun exploring rhythm, music and creativity as part of our Supporting Wellbeing class with Vanessa.

A huge thank you to St James Catholic Primary School for kindly loaning us the musical instruments for our session! 🎵

Our learners not only had a go at following different rhythms, but some even made up their own rhythms for everyone else to try! 👏🥁

A fantastic session filled with music, teamwork, confidence and plenty of fun! 😊

🎉 HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to our learner Misi!🎉

Misi has successfully achieved her NCFE CACHE Level 3 Diploma in Adult Care! 👏🎓

This is a fantastic achievement and a qualification that demonstrates a real commitment to developing the knowledge, skills and understanding needed to provide high-quality care and support. ❤️

At Training in Care, we strongly believe that being qualified to work in care is vital.

Our elderly, vulnerable and most in-need members of society deserve to be supported by people who have the right knowledge, skills and understanding to care for them safely, respectfully and with dignity.

There are still too many people working in care without a recognised qualification. We believe we need to ask an important question:

If qualifications are essential when working with children, why shouldn't the same importance be placed on being qualified when working with our elderly and most vulnerable people?

Care is more than just a job. It is a position of trust, responsibility and compassion, and the people receiving care deserve the very best.

👏 Well done, Misi. Your achievement is something to be proud of, and we wish you every success in your care career!

❤️ Qualified. Skilled. Knowledgeable. Caring.

Our childcare learners worked together in groups to design and develop their own story sacks before presenting them to the class!
Each group took on the role of the story teller, bringing their stories to life through acting, imagination and creative storytelling 🎭
Activities like this give our learners the opportunity to develop their own communication, confidence, teamwork and development.

We loved seeing everyone getting involved, whether it was planning, reading or acting, well done everyone 👏

Activities like this are a great way to encourage creativity, social connection and positive wellbeing – and there were certainly plenty of smiles along the way! 😊

🌸 A lovely day with Apna Ghar Women’s Centre 🌸

Today, we were delighted to attend the Apna Ghar Women’s Centre Annual General Meeting at South Shields Town Hall.

It was a wonderful opportunity to connect with others, learn more about the amazing work Apna Ghar does within our community, and celebrate the difference they make supporting women and families. 🤝✨

And of course, we couldn’t forget the beautiful food! 😍🍽️ We were treated to a fantastic selection of freshly prepared dishes — everything looked and tasted amazing!

Thank you to everyone at Apna Ghar Women’s Centre for making us feel so welcome and for a lovely afternoon. 💐

We’re always proud to connect with organisations doing such valuable work in our local community. ❤️

🤟 Today is International Day of Sign Languages! 🤟

Communication is at the heart of care, and everyone should have the opportunity to be heard, understood and included. 💙

To mark the day, we’ve set our learners a little Sign Language Challenge!👇

🤟 Learn 3 basic signs OR one sentence you could use regularly in a childcare or care setting.

For example:
👋 Hello
🙏 Thank you
🆘 Help

Or challenge yourself with:

“Can I help you?”

We will let you know how they get on next week!

It’s a simple way to learn something new, build confidence and think about the different ways we can communicate and support the people we care for.

At Training in Care, we believe great care starts with understanding the individual, and communication doesn’t always have to be spoken. 💙

Different ways of communicating. The same right to be heard. 🤟
