Explore OutoftheBox Online Mon 25 Jan, 1 Feb, 8 Feb, then 22 Feb, 1 Mar, 8 Mar 2027

Our Explore OutoftheBox course helps you learn how to hold a safe, brave and playful space, and takes place online in two hour sessions for six weeks. We playfully and creatively relax into stories together. The learning model is action-reflection with time to experience the approach and reflect on the experiences. The OutoftheBox approach will also be modelled in the learning process, with mentors drawing out the wisdom of the group to enable peer learning.

We operate a pay-what-you-can-afford model. There are three different pricing bands. As well as our standard price, we have a more affordable Concessions price for anyone who needs it as well as a Supporter price, which is the opportunity to pay a bit more in support of those who need it and of the wider OutoftheBox movement.

Terms and conditions. I understand that my place on the course will only be confirmed once full payment has been received. I understand that if I wish to cancel more than 4 weeks before the training then I will receive a full refund, less £25 for admin costs. If I cancel less than 4 weeks before the start date then I will not receive a refund. However my place is transferable and I can arrange for someone else to take my place. I understand that if the course facilitators need to cancel the training I will be informed as soon as possible and will receive a  full refund.
