Testimonials

Jane Lee

"My background has been in education for the last 22 years and I have taught on many mental health courses. It is a subject that I think touches a lot of people’s lives especially today – men and women, all ages and mental health problems in children are on the increase. It’s a great way to develop your own understanding of mental health and gain a qualification in the process."
