What would help you feel better equipped for the roles you carry right now?

🧭 Welcome

We are currently speaking with professionals and practitioners in schools and community caring or leadership roles across Kendal and beyond who sometimes find themselves in challenging situations with young people and families they have felt underprepared for.

We are inviting professionals to take part in an exploratory conversation to help shape the next stage of the I Matter Learning Journey.

This work is part of a development and pilot process led by Relationship Health Matters CIC.

🧠 What this is about

The I Matter Learning Journey is a structured approach to understanding:

  • relationship health
  • communication
  • stress and emotional responses
  • behaviour
  • everyday challenges at home and at work

We are exploring:

  • what people in different roles wish they had been better prepared for
  • what helps or gets in the way of progress and positive change
  • how a structured learning process could support real-life situations
  • what a practical first-step support pathway could look like

This is a development and co-design process, not a clinical service or assessment.

👥 Who this is for

We would especially like to hear from people who are:

  • senior leads, professionals, or working parents
  • professionals who are also parents or carers
  • interested in relationship health, communication, wellbeing, or learning
  • open to reflecting on what support would help them feel better equipped

This may include people working in health, education, social care, community, or leadership settings.

You should live or work in the Kendal and surrounding area.

🗣 What taking part involves

If you would like to take part, you can book a convenient time for a short conversation (around 45 minutes).

We may explore:

  • what would help you feel better equipped right now
  • what feels missing or unhelpful in current support or training
  • what situations are hardest to navigate
  • what a genuinely useful learning offer would look like
  • whether the I Matter Learning Journey feels relevant to you or your role

There is no preparation needed.

There are no right or wrong answers.

🧭 Important to know

  • This is an open-ended conversation
  • It is not therapy or a clinical service
  • You are free to take part or decline
  • There is no pressure to continue afterwards
  • Your ideas and experience are genuinely valued

This is a developmental and exploratory dialogue.

🌱 Why we are doing this

I Matter training already offers a structured learning approach that can support:

  • earlier understanding rather than crisis response
  • clearer communication and decision-making
  • practical application in real-life situations
  • professionals and parents working from a shared framework

Your input helps ensure future learning options are genuinely useful in real-world settings and situations.

🗣 Interested in taking part?

If this feels relevant, we would welcome a conversation.

BOOK A CALL

🧭 What happens after the call?

The conversation does not commit you to anything further.

It is simply an opportunity to understand what matters to you in your role, what support would be most helpful, and what questions feel most important.

Your ideas will be combined with insights from others to help shape future learning opportunities and applications of the core training.

There is no pressure to continue beyond the conversation.

🧠 Final note

We often find that people already hold valuable insights about what helps and what is missing in current learning and support systems.

These conversations help turn that lived experience into a more practical, grounded learning approach.
