Local People Linking by Outside the Box is a project to help link older people with the local activities and supports they enjoy. We’re here to help bring groups together to learn about each other to create new opportunities in the community. We can help groups hold mini events, days away or just get together for a chat.
**Learning about rights as part of Local People Linking is a FREE training opportunity open to anyone who is interested in learning more about human rights and how they play a part in community supports and activities for older people.
**Who is it for?All are welcome, including older people, families, friends, community groups as well as workers from any sector working with older people.
**What’s involved? As part of the Borders Care Voice Training programme we are running an introduction to Learning about Rights session where we will:
• Bring people together with different experiences to share knowledge and learn more about the rights of older people in their communities.
• Give people a space to reflect on how older people can better access their rights as a part of everyday life
• Explore how everyday experiences link with Human Rights.
