Lisa a was an excellent instructor, demonstrating a deep understanding of the subject matter and a wealth of real-world experience. She skillfully brought the course content to life through engaging discussions and relatable examples, which made complex topics more accessible and meaningful. Despite the course being content-heavy, Lisa ensured it never felt overwhelming. Rather than relying on a slide-heavy approach, she used a conversational and interactive style, guiding discussions and then effectively summarising key points using the slides. This made the session both informative and engaging, striking the right balance between theory and practical application. Her ability to create a safe and open environment encouraged participation and made the learning experience all the more valuable. I left the session feeling more informed, confident, and well-equipped to apply what I had learned. Thank you, Lisa, for delivering such a well-structured and impactful course!

I really enjoyed the course. Mark was engaging and had a lot of experience. I was worried after recent health experiences that I would find the course hard, but I feel I have got a lot more information around mental health, stress and anxiety and have strength from doing the course about also looking after my own well being and mental health. thank you Mark for making the 2 days informative and given us the time to take in all the information. As well as advising us if we needed a break
