About this Event
Over recent years we have seen a significant increase in the use of vapes with young people under the age of 18 across Manchester and based on recent research and data this shows no signs of slowing down.
In response to this worrying trend, Eclypse, in partnership with Public Health have created a free training resource for professionals, to raise awareness around vaping and the dangers and potential harms for young people.
The training will be delivered online via Microsoft Teams and is designed to be easily accessible, providing all professionals with some foundational knowledge about the facts of vaping. It will also highlight the associated dangers and harms and also explore the modern culture in which young people find themselves, which can impact their choices and place them at risk.
Upon completion of the training, all attendees will also be provided with a useful resource library that they can use with young people in a community setting, allowing them to provide some brief advice and guidance, aswell as harm reduction information.
In addition, we have also created a ‘Vaping Screening Tool’ which will allow professionals to effectively assess the needs of young people in relation to vaping and guide them as to whether a referral into Eclypse is needed for further structured or intensive support
PLEASE NOTE THIS TRAINING IS DESIGNED FOR PROFESSIONALS WORKING ACROSS THE CITY OF MANCHESTER - IF YOU ARE NOT WORKING IN A RECOGNISED MANCHESTER ORGANISATION, YOU WILL NOT BE ADMITTED TO THE TRAINING.
