One young person writes…
“Thank you Cat (mentor) for everything. You have helped me through with my Dad and stuff like that. Doing this has helped me to understand there are people who will listen to me and give advice. Brilliant.”
One teacher writes…
“I just wanted to say how happy we are with the work Tom has done with Callum. When Tom picked Callum up we had regular suspensions and I was afraid down the line Callum might be a candidate for a permanent exclusion.
I am delighted to say that Callum’s attitude towards school has improved no end as has his behaviour and this I am sure is in no little part due to the work Tom has done with him.”
