FGC Coordinator Conversion from Child to Adult Welfare

£225 per person - Group discounts available

Are you looking to use Family Group Conferencing (FGC) in adult welfare?

Are you or your team already experienced in coordinating FGCs in child welfare settings?

Curious about the growing use of FGCs with adults?

Then this is the course for you.

While FGCs follow a structured process, working with adults brings unique challenges that require specific knowledge and upskilling. This one-day conversion course is designed for experienced FGC Coordinators who want to expand their practice to adult services.

Since 2007, we’ve been delivering FGCs in adult settings - across both statutory and community-based services. This course draws on that extensive, hands-on experience to help you apply the FGC model effectively with adults.

By the end of the course, you will:

  • Understand current legislation and guidance around safeguarding adults

  • Recognise the benefits of FGCs in adult services and multiagency collaboration

  • Explore how and why FGCs differ in adult safeguarding or wellbeing contexts -including situations involving capacity issues

  • Learn how capacity can affect preparation, agreements, and implementation of FGC plans

  • Gain insight into the importance of support options for adult participants

  • Understand confidentiality rights and when they may be overridden in safeguarding situations

This interactive one-day course includes group work, real-life scenarios, and reflective discussions. You'll explore the challenges of coordinating adult FGCs and how to support meaningful and inclusive participation.

Led by an experienced Adult Family Group Conference Coordinator and Programme Manager.
