Please note: The date provided above is a placeholder, the actual training date will be agreed between you and the training organiser.

The Brain Charity’s criminal justice system neurodiversity training is free to all working with offenders or those likely to offend across Liverpool City Region.

The aim of the training, commissioned by the Merseyside Violence Reduction Partnership, is to raise awareness of neurodiversity in the criminal justice systemits impact on service delivery and how improvements can be made.

The training will be delivered by The Brain Charity’s criminal justice system team. Last year they launched their Another Sign report, which found repeat offending could be reduced if there was better training around neurodivergent conditions within the criminal justice system.

The three hour training sessions are suitable for anyone who comes into contact with offenders in their line of work.

This includes staff working within the criminal justice system (such as within police forces, prisons, courts and the probation service) and anyone else who may work or volunteer with offenders such as housing association, drug and alcohol support service, NHS, public, third and private sector staff.

Training can be tailored to cover general awareness, operational hints and tips for front line staff or strategic topics, depending on the roles of those attending.
