Testimonials from past participants

‘My groups operate very differently, I feel I now know my group much more because we talk more, they also seem to get to know each other quicker, it feels as if every-one can support each other better’

'I control the group better and set ground rules for discussion and exercise works better’

'Patients more talkative/expressive/willing to share and they seem more relaxed with a good rapport with each other and staff’

'Attendance has increased – more individuals completing the programme’

'I am more confident at managing group dynamics, making them more inclusive and not allowing anyone to dominate’
