Great course. I think as someone not trained in counselling maybe longer course needed in how to conduct conversations but it was only running out of time that did not allow this.

Response: Dear Sarah, Thank you for your kind comments about the course. I see what you are saying about not being trained in counselling, so a longer course might be needed. Our evidence suggests that this is a course for all people, supporting us to strengthen the everyday conversational skills we already have. This is why it is first aid, not therapy, I do hope it has supported your skills to strengthen and that you feel able to have a caring conversation should the need arise. Very best wishes, Fiona

It was an emotional subject And liked the content. However towards the end I felt it was rushed especially as the speaker mentioned we can’t try this and can’t do that as we don’t have time. That was a shame to me.

Enormous thanks to and admiration for Fiona Aldred. A few years ago I could never have imagined the need to attend such a course but I feel better equipped after a couple of hours listening to Fiona's advice and first hand experience.

I’ve loved the last 4 days. It’s been mentally challenging and draining, but I’m looking forward to cracking on with day 5.
