Care Worker Training

Would you like to know more about what Glasgow Museums can offer for older people’s groups?

These training sessions are aimed at those working with older people in Glasgow including care staff, managers and volunteers.

The session will include a behind the scenes tour of Glasgow Museums Resource Centre, our museum store. 

We will also include support on delivering reminiscence with your group and an induction to the Open Museum kit store. This will then enable you to borrow our vast array of reminiscence and handling kits. (Please note only groups who work within the Glasgow City Council can borrow kits)

Training takes place at Glasgow Museums Resource Centre, Nitshill.

Please contact Alicia Watson for more information and for future dates: alicia.watson@glasgowlife.org.uk
