As I have a lot of spare time and given the current pandemic crisis and the national suicide and mental health rate going up I feel I would benefit from this to help other people.

I spoke to Joe on the phone what a lovely lady. She went through the course and even helped me with attaching my i.d. so looking forward to starting the course thank you Joe was great talking to you.

I just started the course for Equality and Diversity and it is very interested and all the content is very clear and very dynamic with the exercises. I'm very happy with it and probably I will do another one after this. Claire, the coacher, was very friendly and supportive. Thank you for the opportunity to can improve our skills or just get a new one.

I have just started my second course and the process is going well. I am hoping it will be as good as the first one. Good communication, clear instructions and great material to learn with.
