TESTIMONIALS 3 DAY FP TRAINING JANUARY 2015
Although the subject of the training was a difficult subject, I really enjoyed it and found it a positive experience. I am now looking forward to going out into the big wide world of Daventry and facilitating the Freedom Programme.

Informative and powerful programme.
Children’s Services Practitioner- Rachel.robbs@actionforchildren.org.uk
Clare is very realistic, knowledgeable, fair and non-judgmental in this training. Gives real life experiences, factual and the way she passes on her knowledge is through group discussions, to help us express our views and learn, and through fun activities.
Thank you Clare.

Family Support Worker- julie.wotherspoon@actionforchildren.org.uk
I was really anxious about attending the training due to past childhood experiences. I'm really glad I faced my anxiety and attended. Not only do I have answers to my own questions that I didn't know I had, I also feel I'm more beneficial to my service users. Thank you Clare for your knowledge.
Children’s Services Practitioner- Natalie.terry@actionforchildren.org.uk
Every woman needs to go on this training to raise awareness and empower us as women.
Family Support Worker- Rachel.walding@actionforchildren@org.uk
Very informative. Opportunities to reflect. I have a greater understanding of what constitutes as domestic abuse and tactics used. It was well presented. Positive experience.
Family Support Worker- Karen.rolfe@actionforchildren.org.uk
It’s a great opportunity to look and discuss what a 'dominator' is and how to recognise the warning signs. A serious subject but that Clare dealt with in an informative and sometimes humorous way without it becoming offensive. Clare is a good trainer with lots of information and plenty of experience.

This training is excellent to enhance your knowledge of domestic abuse and give you the tools and confidence to deliver the programme to service users. I would recommend this training to colleagues. Domestic Abuse Practitioner- shannon@wenwomensaid.org.uk

I am better equipped to support clients emotionally and help them to develop an understanding of the abuse they have suffered. Domestic Abuse Intervention practitioner - clare@wenwomensaid.co.uk
This training was very interesting. It was insightful into the minds and actions of a dominator. It enabled me why abuse happens and the cycle of abuse. I found inspiring as well as upsetting in parts, especially the effects DA has on children. It has made me more aware of the problems and help me in my role in how to support women and children in this position. Childrens Services Lead- ssamuels@spurgeons.org
Enlightening- Honest training. Provides the right amount of information and a good balance of group work and individual participation. Hard going in some places- Highlighted areas I hadn't previously considered. Coordinator- germany64@virginmedia.com
