This day programme is just one way of exploring Inspired, but different groups may well want to customise it. Anyone who has some experience of facilitating groups could deliver it, but we would suggest you experience a similar Inspired event first, if at all possible. For details of Inspired events that you could could attend, facilitator's notes and handouts for this programme, please contact the central team on inspired@mothersunion.org who would be delighted to hear from you.
