Recent Feedback from Participants 

The trainer was friendly, engaging and knowledgeable. She explained everything very clearly and allowed plenty of time for questions. I feel like I learnt a lot about s98, s95 and s4 support.

It was great to hear from different organisations and for everyone to share their own knowledge about support offered and what they have experienced with supporting people, in their roles. The Trainer also had a wealth of knowledge and shared this effectively 

I really liked going through the practical scenarios - it gave tips and guidance on how to deal with more complication situations that I would not have known how to deal with

The Trainer was amazing at breaking down case law and complex processes into understandable situations
