Here are a few of our learner’s testimonies that have recently completed the course:-

“I was hesitant at first to attend the RSTC as I didn’t feel I needed to; however, I am so pleased I went ahead.  The course has really helped me to identify areas in my life that I was neglecting. I thought I was coping, but I quickly realised as the course went on, that I wasn’t caring for my own needs, and that I needed to take more care of myself to enable me to be healthy and strong enough to care for others.   The tutors were excellent, and I felt able to share my feelings with them and the group in the knowledge that everything we spoke about was confidential. The tutors and the group also contributed their experiences which was really helpful as it made me realise that I was not on my own, and they also offered up solutions which had helped them to cope, which in turn I have used in my own life.

If anyone is thinking about attending this course and are feeling reluctant or apprehensive about it, I would highly recommend you do. I have felt so much better after attending and I have continued to work on practising the techniques they have given me to cope with things, on both a personal and a practical level”

Barbara Smith – December 2021

This course has taught me that there are no deadlines to your learning and that even though I’m older now, there’s always things to learn and new ways of putting these into practice.  There are sections which I thought weren’t relevant at first, but I still managed to take some ideas that worked.

This course has been very good for me I’m so glad I did it, it’s been a very pleasant journey! 

I’m so grateful to Kinza and Kathrine.

“We have learned from Ruth and Kathryn who have delivered the course brilliantly. We have looked forward to each session. Thank you.”

“Overall we have learned so much, coping strategies and a toolbox that we can use to continue our journeys.”

“Ruth + Kathryn were spot on.”
