“Case Study (Client B)
• Client disclosed that she had been in an abusive relationship for 15 years and due to the ongoing abuse she experienced she never thought she was good enough to get a job
• Client feedback “Coming to this course has really helped me, firstly with my self-confidence as I haven’t worked for years as I have been bringing up my family. It really empowered me to apply for jobs and I was able to gain employment successfully.”
Case study (Client C and D)
Two of the participants were extremely anxious and crying with panic attacks prior to the course starting. One of the participants came into the training room on the first day but was too upset to sit with the groups. She sat at the back of the training room next to the door just in case she wanted to leave, she was tearful throughout the session but stayed in the session as she really wanted to attend. The second session she joined the group on her own accord and the third session she was confident enough to contribute to the discussions and group work.
Her feedback: “Thank you for this support training its made my confidence, also answered questions I had. Amazing and detailed information throughout. Thank you”
Both participants were made to feel welcome and one to one support offered to them prior to starting the course to enable them to attend.
