Peer support: Work-life balance (Open to everyone)
- This event has passed.
April 15 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Together, in this peer space, we’ll reflect on and explore what balancing work and life means to us.
- What does the balance look like for us at the moment?
- Why is it important? What is the purpose?
- What works for you? What barriers are in place?
The discussion will be guided by these questions, with plenty of room for sharing practical tips, insights, and experiences.
This peer support session is open to all: individual and collective advocates, administration & support staff, managers, chief executives, volunteers, and any other worker at SIAA member organisation. If you’re reading this, you’re invited!
Please note that we are testing using Microsoft Teams instead of Zoom for peer supports. Your feedback and thoughts on this potential change will be warmly welcomed!

Peer supports are regular Zoom sessions for SIAA members. The main goal of peer supports is to provide space for exchange of ideas and experiences among peers. The idea is that, despite differences in independent advocacy practice throughout Scotland, independent advocacy workers do face similar challenges and benefit from mutual support, encouragement, and assistance that these sessions can provide. It’s also a way for SIAA to support and encourage reflective practice, and keep in touch with what is happening in the sector, while enabling pooling of resources and expertise in a safe, confidential space.
