Feedback

I attended the 'building your resilience at work' training with Shona. She was so lovely and enthusiastic. The training was enjoyable and informative with helpful techniques to use to build your resilience. The training group I was in had very friendly people who were all up to contribute and work together which was a relief as I can be shy.
Enjoyable and Informative!
This course, firstly, was professionally delivered with an approach that fostered good relationships, peer support and relevant discussions. Shona was nothing short of excellent. The tools and props used were of good quality/standard. Everyone's needs were discussed and given relevant time and attention. Above all there was no judgements on what you needed from the course. Great follow up support is provided. The venue is a well presented and comfortable place with great facilities. The Hub Events has ticked all boxes.
Shona was nothing short of excellent!
