"Boundaries are a fundamental, integral part of befriending which link with many other areas of good practice… Boundaries are a positive element of a befriending relationship with good reasons behind them rather than a negative restrictive idea."
—BNS Code of Practice

This course will enable you to:

  • Examine why boundaries are important within befriending
  • Explore the relationship between personal and professional boundaries
  • Identify how to establish and communicate boundaries within your service
  • Understand why befriendees may test boundaries and why befrienders may change boundaries.

Previous participants said:

"Helped me clarify the importance of boundaries for myself, my volunteers and my organisation, lots of useful exercises and tips and a very enjoyable day."

"It was stimulating and excellent, a valuable opportunity to reflect on practice and bounce ideas with other befriending workers."
