Details

We all know “Transitioning” is one of the most rewarding things anyone can do in these changing times. We also know it is one of the hardest.

That’s why we have developed Transition THRIVE - a 2-days training course, specifically designed to help Transition Initiatives take stock and develop strategies on how to get to the next level.

Do any these strike a chord with you?

• Inspiring more people to get involved is not always easy

• We could do more if we got the funding we desperately need

• We need a local, green economy… but where to start?

• What inspiring examples of jobs and enterprises are there that we could try out in our Transition Initiative?

• I wonder if we could be more effective with communication

• Do Twitter and Facebook work for engaging with more people?

• I know we have done great things, but it sometimes doesn’t feel like it

If so, this training will open new ways of living and working for you personally, and be of significant benefit to your Transition Initiative.

The Training will be run by Naresh Giangrande, co-founder of Transition Town Totnes and Transition Training, and Jenny Mackewn a senior lecturer at Bath University and member of Transition Bath.

COSTS: We are trying out a new financing model for the Thrive Training, inspired by the "Gift Economy" and Transition Portugal. So all we ask for is a payment of £40 prior to the course. The actual full costs of the training weekend is £105, but we leave it up to each participant to decide after the course, if and how much they want to contribute to this course as a way of gratitude and support of its continuity in the future.

BOOKING: click here to book.

BURSARIES: Bursaries are available to those who cannot afford to pay the minimum fee of £40. Please contact training@transitionnetwork.org to apply.

TRAINING COURSE CONFIRMATION: we will confirm the training at least 2 weeks before the event.

CANCELLATIONS & REFUNDS: Please let us know, if you cannot attend the training course you are booked in for. We will refund the deposit up until 2 weeks before the event. For cancellations received less than 2 weeks prior to the event, refunds are regrettably not possible.
