"I thought this course was brilliant. The content was well thought through, helpfully delivered and highly relevant. I’ve come out of it with a number of new coping strategies and better understanding. The webinar format was easy to use and the follow up content has been comprehensive but also user friendly. Really can’t speak highly enough of this course, I wish I’d known about it sooner!"
