Smart moves, manual handling made easy
Join us for Smart Moves, a half-day hands-on workshop designed to help learn safe and effective manual handling techniques—without the use of hoists. Whether you are supporting someone at home or in the community, this workshop will give you the knowledge and confidence to protect both yourself and your loved ones.
What is covered:
- Theory: Understand the principles of safe moving and handling, spinal health, posture, and identifying manual handling risks.
- Practice: Learn how to use mobility aids like walkers, walking sticks, and walk belts, and safely assist someone in and out of a car.
- Real-Life Scenarios: Apply what you have learned in everyday situations carers face at home or while out and about.
This off-site, hoist-free session is perfect for carers looking to improve their practical skills, reduce injury risk, and feel more confident in their role.
