Brook RED are delighted to introduce a new series of lived experience learning & practice development sessions. This year we will be hosting a series of interactive training taster sessions with experienced & highly skilled lived experience facilitators. Our guest facilitators for these webinars are kindly sponsored by Brisbane North PHN. This event is peer driven, peer designed & peer delivered.
