Spinal Injuries Ireland in partnership with our good friends from Aware are delighted to be able to facilitate a fantastic 6-week Life Skills Programme.

Aware is the national organisation providing free support, education and information services to those impacted by anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and related mood conditions.

What is the Life Skills Programme?

Based on the principles of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), the Life Skills programme is designed to help people learn more about how we think and how this can influence our actions in helpful or unhelpful ways.

The Life Skills Group Programme is delivered over the course of six weeks in 90-minute sessions. With the help of a series of easy-to-follow worksheets and expert guidance from your trained facilitator at each session, you can learn how to better manage the stress of everyday life, recognise and manage unhelpful thoughts, learn new ways of thinking and ultimately begin the journey to a healthier and more confident life.

The Spinal Injuries Ireland Life Skills Programme?

Tailored exclusively for SII service users and family members, this fantastic programme will be delivered by SII service user, Ciaran Allen.

This Life Skills programme has been independently evaluated by Aware and shown to deliver proven results. The evaluation showed a statistically significant improvement in participants’ self-reported levels of anxiety and depression after completing the programme.

This means that participants of the Life Skills programme reported less levels of anxiety and depression after completing the programme.

Life Skills is also consistent with the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines for the treatment of depression and anxiety.
