AI summary of reviews

Consistently knowledgeable, patient and engaging trainers are the provider’s clearest strength, making complex theory accessible through humour, real-life examples, discussion and hands-on practice. Attendees value the safe, supportive atmosphere, clear explanations, thoughtful adaptations and opportunities to ask questions and repeat techniques until confident. Courses are generally well structured and paced, with useful breaks, and learning transfers directly to workplace practice and everyday situations; a few attendees find some sessions longer or more repetitive than necessary.

I did not feel that the morning session added much to level 1. I felt it could have been condensed into an 45/60 minute summary rather than the whole morning. However, the afternoon session was useful and informative. Ben was really forthcoming with answering questions and queries, and providing additional information. He was also respectful of people’s different physical needs and emotional/psychological triggers where relevant.

Good content, not always applicable to our type of service and needs, however think level 2 will be, as the how to de-escalate a situation, how to respond to cues will be helpful.

Very enjoyable course. Learnt a lot. Good to also have the skills for life away from work. Not for me personally but would be good for Domestic Violence victims.only suggestion is an ice breaker a little later in the session once we have relaxed & got to know fellow participants a bit it would have been more comfortable then.
