Citizen Leadership Training - A Photo Diary
On October 4th -8th 2010, a group of staff and Service Users underwent Citizen Leadership Training. This training arose from the user and carer forum in 2006. " Citizen Leadership is an activity that happens when Citizens have power and influence and responsibility to make decisions. Citizen Leadership happens when individuals have some control over their services."
There are 8 principles of the Leadership.
1. Potential
Everyone should have their leadership potential recognised.
2. Development
People's Leadership potential can only be fulfilled through opportunities for development.
3. Early Involvement
People who use services and carers must be involved at all stages of developing and delivering services.
4. Person -Centred
Everyone is an individual and should be helped to show leadership in way that suits them best.
5. Information
People need information that is clear to them and they need it in plenty of time.
6. Equality
People use their leadership skills to challenge inequality in services and wider society.
7. Control though Partnership
Citizen Leadership enables people to have more control over their own services, through
working in partnership with those services.
8. Wider Benefit
Citizen Leadership is for the Benefit of other people who use services as well as yourself.
Paul And James underwent training to deliver the programme to both service users and staff
After four days of training the groups came together to present ideas about the best day service. The presentations were full of exciting, innovative ideas about the future of day services. During feedback at the end of the session, everyone confirmed the training was "inspirational, amazing and exciting''. The groups will come together again soon to report on the Training Sessions.

News from Woodwork
We are very busy at the moment - we were approached by the waste dept of Aberdeenshire council to design a store for wheelie bins to be sited in lay byes and car parks. We made a prototype which was picked up and taken to Fraserburgh for close inspection and returned with an order for 8 to be sited throughout Aberdeenshire; the bins are opened and placed inside the store which is locked. The waste department are to trial our bins and if successful a very big order may come our way.
The bins are made entirely from recycled wood (pallets) and on the same theme we have designed and built a recycle tidy which are going on sale to the general pubile in the next three weeks again built entirely from recycled pallets.
Our horse signs are ready for a long jounrney, they have been made for a woman who has stables in Bahrain she visited us some weeks ago and was well impressed with the signs; she had one made and returned and placed an order for another 10. They are made from solid oak with the name routed into the wood and painted again. These are made from whisky barrels which were being thrown out from a local from a local distillery and we got the offer which we snapped up affer a lot of hard work.
