Girls Friendly Society volunteers from around the country gathered in September for the GFS Annual Training Weekend.
This year’s event, which was held in Birmingham, saw 40 volunteers participate in training sessions and workshops hosted by GFS staff and trained practitioners, as well take part is an inspiring session led by mental health charity Mind.
The three days covered topics such as managing challenging behaviour and resolving problems, planning activities and mental health in girls and young women.
There were also plenty of opportunities for volunteers to feedback ideas as well as get to know their fellow volunteers from all over the country during games and entertainment.
