“I learnt a lot about myself and team members in a memorable and powerful way. I’m not leaving with the same people as I arrived”

"This part of the programme is always done in the early stages; the difference it has made to clients has been overwhelming. Once clients have returned they are more motivated, their managers notice a big difference from carrying out their daily activities to taking on new responsibilities, and they speak highly of the staff that supported them.”
