Schools and Youth Resources

We have some brand new resources to use with young people in 2011.

FriendPlace

In the format of fictitious social networking site, FriendPlace, these two separate resources follow the stories of two young people and encourage students to engage with their situations.

An accompanying Powerpoint presentation with teachers’ notes is also available to download.

1) Sexual Health Resource – download the FriendPlace story of Hannah McT, who is considering her options after a condom has burst. Includes quiz questions. Click here. (Download the accompanying teachers` notes here.)

2) Stigma & Discrimination Resource- download the FriendPlace story of Cameron P, who is considering whether to disclose his sexuality when he applies for a job in a baker’s shop. Includes quiz questions. Click here. (Download the accompanying teachers` notes here.)

3) Powerpoint presentation for above resources + teachers’ notes and quiz answers - available using Slideshare.  Click here.  To access teachers` notes you need to download the presentation.

If you use any of our resources we would appreciate your feedback so that we can make sure we are providing you with the best resources we can. You can download a feedback form here.

Every year, we need to raise £380,000 to enable us to provide our services to people who are living with HIV and Hepatitis C in Scotland. A fundraising ideas sheet is included in the downloadable material. We hope that, as well as using our free resources, you will want to help us continue to provide that support.

To help you with your fundraising, we can provide our unique tartan HIV awareness ribbons, which can be sold or given in return for a donation. Please download our order form above or contact Karen Docwra on 0131 556 9710 or email fund@waverleycare.org
