The aim of this topic is to help the group to get to know each other using activities that describe their likes and dislikes. Some of the things that they talk about in these first few sessions may be used later on in future sessions but the objective of this topic is to get the group members to start talking about themselves. This topic also introduces the group to the activity ‘How am I feeling?’ which you will then use at the beginning of every session.
