Relationship courses for couples who want to work as a team
Everyday skills for listening, handling conflict, rebuilding trust and agreeing family boundaries, with check-ins and scripts you can use together or alone.
- 5 courses
- Tools in every course
- Certificate included
Every couple disagrees. What matters more is how disagreements are handled: whether both people feel heard, whether arguments stay fair, and whether you can repair things afterwards. The UK government's Reducing Parental Conflict programme recognises that frequent, intense and unresolved conflict between parents can affect children, which is one more reason these skills are worth practising.
Our courses turn widely used relationship skills into practical routines: a weekly check-in, speaker and listener turns for difficult topics, a cool-down plan for heated moments, and written agreements on things like family visits. You can take them together, or on your own if your partner is not ready.
These courses are for couples who feel safe with each other, and they are not a substitute for couples counselling. If your partner controls, threatens, frightens or hurts you, the problem is not your communication, and you deserve specialist support; the help box below lists where to find it.

When it is more than ordinary conflict
If you are in immediate danger, call 999. Where talking is not safe, dial 999 on a mobile and then press 55.
Controlling behaviour, threats, checking your phone, restricting your money or your contact with others, and any physical or sexual harm are forms of domestic abuse, which is a crime. Free, confidential help is available in every nation, and the GOV.UK domestic abuse page lists support across the UK. Couples counselling is not usually recommended where there is abuse.
If either of you has felt low or anxious most days for two weeks or more, a GP is a good first contact.
Relationship courses: your questions
Can I take a relationship course on my own?
Yes. Many people start alone because their partner is not ready. Changing how you respond can still change the pattern, and the tools work for one person as well as two.
Is this the same as couples counselling?
No. Counselling is delivered by a trained counsellor who can work with your situation. The courses teach general skills and point you to counselling if you need more support.
We are not married. Are the courses for us?
Yes. Apart from the marriage course title, everything applies to any committed couple, whether you live together or not.
Will my partner see what I write?
Your entries are saved to your own account. You choose what to share, and the private checks are for your eyes only.
Where can we get help with money disagreements?
MoneyHelper, the government-backed money guidance service, offers free budgeting tools and advice for couples. The shared goals planner in the marriage course also helps you talk through priorities.
What if we have decided to separate?
Our Parenting After Separation course covers co-parenting, and GOV.UK explains family mediation and making child arrangements.
