INCLUSIVE PROGRAMME

LMK’s workshops teach young people to spot and stop unhealthy relationship behaviours in themselves and others, using the 10 Signs framework.

We believe every young person benefits from a safe space to discuss relationships, and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) often miss out on these important conversations, even though they may be at greater risk of relationship abuse.

Our workshops are developed in collaboration with SEND professionals, parents, and young people with lived experience. They are designed to give young people the knowledge, skills, and confidence to speak out, seek support, and stay safe.

Guidance for schools: Our workshops best suit students in SEND settings who can engage independently with discussion-based learning and group activities. Because our sessions are interactive and conversation-led, they may not suit students with profound learning difficulties or highly complex needs that require intensive one-to-one support or highly adapted communication methods. We’re always happy to discuss your group and help you determine whether our offer is the right fit.

 

The LMK Programme:

We offer an inclusive relationships education programme of four workshop options. The 10 Signs workshop is the foundation of our programme and must be completed by everyone. This core module provides the essential framework needed to progress to our advanced sessions. Our other three workshops build on the 10 Signs workshop to create an enhanced relationships education programme tailored to your organisation’s individual needs.

1. Introducing the 10 Signs

Through group discussion, real-life scenarios, and self-reflection, young people learn the 10 Signs of a healthy/unhealthy relationship and develop practical tools and strategies to help themselves and others. This introductory workshop provides a clear, practical framework for understanding relationships in a safe, relatable and engaging learning environment.

2. Delving Deeper
Having learned about the 10 Signs, this advanced workshop offers young people the opportunity to explore the signs in different contexts, applying critical thinking skills and a problem-solving approach. Often, in this workshop the young people in the room will choose the signs they want to explore in more detail, allowing them an opportunity to discuss issues that are most relevant to their situation right now.
 
 
3. Sharing of intimate images

This advanced workshop gives young people a deeper understanding of the consequences of sharing intimate images and equips them with strategies to protect themselves.
