Are you a person of colour who wishes to train as a mindfulness teacher?
Or an experienced mindfulness practitioner who wants to support a trainee teacher?
Mind in Salford have funding for a new intensive mentoring programme which includes a 12 month teacher training pathway.
The Mindfulness PTP (Practitioner Training Programme) is a 12 month mindfulness teacher training pathway that Mind in Salford have been running annually since 2015. During this time, they have trained 84 practitioners who have become qualified mindfulness teachers recognised by BAMBA (British Association of Mindfulness Based Approaches). Out of the 84 qualified practitioners, only 10 identify as people of colour. Mind in Salford want to address this inequality and have sourced funding for a pre-PTP mentoring programme to support people prior to the 12 month teacher training programme which will be fully funded.
Mind in Salford are looking for 6 mentors and 6 mentees (mentees must live in Greater Manchester) to take part from May/June.
Deadline for mentors / experienced mindfulness teachers: 6 May 2022
Deadline for mentees / teachers in training: 20 May 2022
