TESTIMONIAL

Dave’s facilitation training was amazing!

It helped us drastically improve our NiteLine training programme, making it more engaging, interactive and downright fun (which is no mean feat when you’re training volunteers on heavy content like suicide). Our training team feel more confident than ever in their ability to draw the best out of each group, deal with the unexpected and have a laugh along the way.

The day was a mixture of quality content, model facilitation on Dave’s part and enough energisers to make coffee redundant – couldn’t recommended highly enough. Swipe right.
