Sherwood Training Reviews

Really enjoyed the course over the 3 days, and I have gained more knowledge about how to properly carry out a RPI and breakaway. Both Georgie and Katie were really knowledgeable and explained each of the breakaways and RPIs step by step which was really helpful.

They were both really good and worked together well as a team to give thorough training. I enjoyed that they used real life examples of how it will be used for us, and they gave each of us the time and attention needed to perfect the break aways and restraints, and the theory was thorough and they went into enough detail but kept the vibe up and kept it very interesting so we didnt lose focus. It was very good and was the first training I've ever had on my life that was so easily digestible to my neurodivergent brain. Both excellent trainers and I hope to have them again for future trainings. They were very person centred with there training which is very appreciated as often people forget to do that with staff. Thankyou lots to both of them.

Helped me know what to do as I forgot some of the of the training

Useful to go over the techniques as this was recommended during my observation. Interesting to hear some examples of how to make the theory side of the course more engaging.

Really great refresher. Improved my warm up skills and physical skills. On theory, it’s been great to share activities between trainers.

Really good refresher. Took some good ideas away with me regarding group exercises during courses, really enjoyed the course. Kirtstie was brilliant as are all Sherwood trainers. thank you

Good refresher good trainer good to refresh on the level 3 holds as we don’t use them great examples from kirsty

Great refresher kirstie was amazing again a few new bits been highlighted for future courses Look forward to the next one Keep up the good work guys

Good to know about update on baseline. Liked looking at other activities these were useful. Good to refresh physical skills. Thank you :)

As always, the refresher is hugely valuable. Not only was the content great, but it’s also really helpful to share feedback and ideas with other associate trainers. Kirstie is knowledgable and delivered the training in an interesting and insightful way.
