FURTHER INFORMATION ON THE PLAN B WORKSHOP

The Plan B game is a fun and interactive training resource designed to explore all the possible problems and solutions that we might encounter when getting out and about with friends.

Set in a fictional town on a large-scale, beautifully illustrated game board Plan B takes players through a range of scenarios and events based on the real-life experiences of the people we support. It provides lots of opportunities for lively discussion and exploration around overcoming the trials and tribulations of getting out with friends and is a great tool for learning about personal safety, making choices and planning ahead.

We have tested Plan B with several groups of adults with a range of additional needs and had great feedback from service users, support staff and professionals alike.
