“Ryan & Charlotte were exceptional and truly inspiring." Trauma and Change with the Insight Academy


Trauma and Change with Stoke on Trent City Council


I think the legend that is Gina Grimes will be more than pleased with the on-going feedback from the sessions I’ve been delivering in collaboration with Expert Citizens Insight Academy. Staff from Stoke on Trent City Council Adult Social Care and partner agencies and departments are regularly attending the sessions at the Dudson Centre in Hanley.


I would like to point out that lunch IS provided and time and again staff from the council have been shocked to find out that the course is fully catered! Spread the message folks and let the Insight Academy know about your dietary requirements… 😊


Jonathan has had the unenviable task of collating together the feedback from the course and as you can see, it is vast and varied and you’ll be pleased to note 100% positive. I really feel that this course is making a real impact on people’s minds and their working practices.
