  • Over 60 activities to develop social skills in body language, the way we talk, conversations and assertiveness.
  • Over a years' worth of work on developing social skills.
  • A short introduction to working with adolescents and adults with social skills difficulties.
  • An assessment of social skills and planning sheet for intervention.
  • Ideas for group cohesion activities to use within your groups.
  • Forms and evaluation sheets to help with the smooth running of groups.
