I honestly couldn’t recommend Gareth and Gil highly enough. They have both been absolutely outstanding tutors throughout my PMVA training. From the very beginning, they created a supportive, professional and engaging learning environment. They explained everything clearly, were incredibly patient, and made sure everyone felt comfortable asking questions and getting involved. Their knowledge and experience really showed, but what stood out most was how approachable, encouraging and genuinely passionate they were about helping us learn. PMVA can be a challenging subject, particularly when it comes to understanding the importance of safety, communication, dignity and managing difficult situations. Gareth and Gil delivered the training in a way that was informative, practical and easy to understand, while still making it engaging and enjoyable. They treated everyone with respect and never made anyone feel uncomfortable or judged. They encouraged us throughout and gave us the confidence to put what we had learned into practice. I’ve completed a lot of training over the years, and Gareth and Gil genuinely stand out as two of the best tutors I’ve had. They are a credit to the organisation, and their dedication, professionalism and passion for what they do really shines through. Thank you both for making the PMVA course such a positive experience. I’ve taken away not only the knowledge and skills from the course, but also a renewed confidence in my ability to use them in practice. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
