*Support for our LIFT Participants at TU Dublin?
The brilliant aspect of LIFT is that being a facilitator is really well supported:
The programme comes with a workbook with step-by-step instructions and the entire programme is scripted.  All of the sessions are conducted in a discreet non-judgemental way. The aim is for you to focus on the experience.
 
So if you have any concerns we want you to know that we will support you all the way and we know you can do it!

The LIFT programme is powerful and uses plain and simple approaches and languages to be accessible to all.
