Informative and powerful programme.
Children’s Services Practitioner- Rachel.robbs@actionforchildren.org.uk

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.

Every woman needs to go on this training to raise awareness and empower us as women.

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.

It was very thought provoking and gave me a better understanding of the tactics used by a perpetrator. I am looking forward to putting the training into practice and delivering the freedom programme Domestic Abuse Prevention Worker- y.gibb@ntlworld.com

Clare is inspirational and really understands the effects this has on people. Family Worker- kseuke@spurgeons.org

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

Excellent program- learn about DV how individual can dominate through strength, role etc. life changing experience for ladies + men. Safeguarding

Feedback from men's programme 13/14 October Thank you Chris Ashton
Men and partners wrote:
My god what can I say, life changing/attitude changing. I will change and will carry on reading. Learned so much about myself
Although the programme was only two days long it was intense. It was well demonstrated and open my eyes as to my beliefs. I know I can be a better man and benefit from what I have learned.
I am pleased and honoured to be allowed to do this programme. It has been a great experience and I have learned a lot about my manners. Thank you very much to the very brave lady Chris who was superb.
I'm happy I attended the course I learned a lot about how I impact on my children and how that shapes their lives. Looking at this was very distressing I did not know how painful emotionally this could be for them. I will be withdrawing my application for residency of the children from court their mother is an excellent mother and I will support her.
This course opens your mind.Chris was brilliant and helpful. It has been great I would definately recommend to other men.
The course was interesting gave lots of time for discussion around the men over women agenda. I didn't know what I was doing was abusive but I have been abusive to my partners.
I think the programme is very good. It has taught me and made me understand a lot about how I have been putting so much pressure on to my family without me knowing what I was doing. I will go from here and be able to be a better father and partner. I really couldn't believe there was a part of me and what I've done in this book. It is my time to change
Many thanks for this programme. You were very honest and didn't hold back on the impact of my behaviour. It was a hard thing to be faced with very upsetting, but nothing compared to what I put my wife through. It was a shock when I saw images of me reflected back.
It was a good course. I learned a lot about relationships and how adults behaviour affects all the family
Thanks for delivering such an informative programme which has certainly put things into perspective for me. Chris is fab so welcoming and really made me feel at ease from the start and comfortable at all times especially broaching some difficult subjects which made me feel emotional at times.
I will be going home and apologising to my partner and my kids. I don't expect them to forgive me and realise that I will have a long way to go but I will try my best to undo the damage I have done. Thank you
I never saw myself as one of those men - how stupid was I
So glad I attended with my partner, wow how much have I learned. I often wondered how I ended up here now I know and have knowledge
Thank you for the programme. I am not going to stop here I am going to continue to work on my behaviour, before I even think about being in any relationship.
Very emotional to hear how my behaviour was shaping the future of my children. Very powerful
I blamed social workers for removing my children I blamed her for having me thrown out I blamed the police for arresting me. I blamed her friends for putting ideas into her head. I blamed her family because they never liked me. I blamed everyone except the person whose fault it was ME

Feedback from Facilitator Training in Oxfordshire September 2015
Amazing training, thank you.
I was a little apprehensive at the start, not quite knowing what to expect….. however you delivered the course with such passion and feeling that I became so engrossed I didn’t want to leave! (It was also nice not having to be pc)
Being “in role” is a fantastic way to work through the book as it really brings the effects home.
I am planning on delivering a course early next year, if not before, and I can’t wait to do it!
Thank you!
Huge thanks to Pat the training was amazing and I have taken lots away from it and feel very inspired to now go out and deliver the programme.
Best training I have attended in a long time.
It was an amazing few days. Pat we love you.
Just wanted to thank you for a fantastic 3 days on the Freedom Programme Training, I thoroughly enjoyed it and took a lot away from it and cannot wait to run a programme. I can honestly say it is the best training I have ever been on! Your delivery style is second to none which made it engaging and fun.
