Allow us to tell you a bit about Lau-Ed Training…

At Lau-Ed, we offer a variety of training, with a focus on Suicide prevention, Safeguarding and Mental Health & Wellbeing.

Founded in 2021, Lau-Ed Training was established by Clare Lancaster, Clare Anderson-Au, and Clare Yau (yes, three Clares - and two of us share the same birthday!). Lau-Ed was our response to a clear need for suicide intervention training as a result of rising numbers of suicide and mental health concerns because of the Covid-19 pandemic. We wanted to be able to support our communities and keep everyone safer, and this was our best way to do that - by making suicide intervention training widely available.

We proudly offer the evidence-based and accredited LivingWorks Trainings ASIST (Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training) and safeTALK (suicide alertness for everyone).

Over time, we realised there was a need for broader training to support schools and organisations to support their communities. These days we offer a range of additional workshops or courses, all of which can be tailor-made to meet your requirements. Some examples of training we we now offer include:

  • Nurture

  • Safeguarding

  • Advanced Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) Training

  • Mental Health & Wellbeing

  • Self Harm

  • Anti-bullying

  • Teenage brain development

  • Positive Education

  • …and many more!

We are more than happy to work with you to create bespoke training packages, and we also offer mentoring for Designated Safeguarding Leads, Educational Psychologists, Counsellors and Coaches.

We receive consistently positive feedback on our workshops and trainings, with our trainers described as engaging, knowledgeable, approachable and humorous. We believe that interaction and questions should be encouraged and we love a lively discussion!

With a team of experienced trainers with backgrounds in psychology, counselling, coaching, education, leadership and management, you can be sure you will receive training that meets your needs and extends your skills. We have trainers across the world, from the UK to Singapore to China, and are willing and able to work with schools or organisations across the world.

While our backgrounds and expertise mean we are especially suited to international schools, we are more than happy to work with any other organisation to offer training.
