Here at Encompass Psychology we deliver training to practitioners so that they can deliver Riding The Rapids groups for parents and carers, in their area. We do not deliver the Riding The Rapids groups for parents and carers through Encompass Psychology however we have trained practitioners from a range of different services and across a number of different regions in the UK. 

If you are interested in attending a Riding The Rapids group, we would recommend you discuss this with other professionals involved in your child’s care, such as school, your child’s GP or local voluntary sector services. They may be able to tell you whether there are Riding The Rapids groups being offered in your area. All local authorities should have a ‘local offer’ which provides a summary of information about the support and services families can expect to find in their area for children and young people with additional needs and disabilities. This information is often provided through a website. Some services advertise their Riding The Rapids groups through their ‘local offer’ website therefore it may be helpful to look here too.
