Befriending Research Seminar

Tuesday 29th May 2012 • 11am – 3pm (lunch included)

The University of Edinburgh

This seminar aims to raise the profile of befriending and promote more discussion of, interest
in and funding for befriending services. Whilst the specific focus is on children’s befriending projects
the messages are applicable more widely.

The findings from the ‘Me and My Befriender’ research project will be presented along with details
of other research. Maureen McGinn from the Big Lottery will speak on evaluation, sharing practice
and research. She will also be available over the lunch period for consultation. Seminar participants
will have the opportunity to share their ideas in focused discussion sessions.

Cost – £25 (lunch included). Some places are free for Children’s Befriending Projects - for more
