Click on the title of the event you are interested in to be redirected to the registration page on Eventbrite.
Full details, including course content, are available on the registration page. Only one registration per household is needed, even if two people are attending. You will receive an automated confirmation of your registration immediately, and you will be sent the joining details directly three days before the event.
We will operate a waiting list if the course is full, and you will be contacted if a space becomes available. We hope you enjoy the training.
Please note that Buddy events are open to approved LCF Buddies only, or to those approved foster carers who are interested in being a Buddy to prospective foster carers. For further information about places on Buddy events or on becoming a Buddy, please contact the LCF Learning and Development advisor directly.
