Morning Shona,
I wanted to thank you for such an incredibly inspiring and engaging event yesterday. Here at Warrington Time to Change we strive to challenge stigma and discrimination around mental health, the event yesterday was centred around the message of hope and resilience. The event lifted and inspired so many people. We have had some fantastically positive feedback from participants.
“What an emotional & inspirational talk today from Shona. I’m really glad I was able to hear Shona’s life experiences & about her survival. Thanks also for sending all the links, as you said you would. I will read more about what she does.
Just a really great session”
Working with Shona was a delight and we are looking forward to working together in the future.
Thank you Shona.
Take Care
Jayne
