Training Feedback from Whitmore High School 2024

‘The school was really impressed with the training on CYPs and self-harm recently provided by The Wish Centre. The session based on up-to-date research and practice tailored to the needs of the school, and staff went away with expert advice and practical strategies to support CYPs who self-harm. We look forward to welcoming them again to deliver a follow-up session to help build on and develop our practice further.’

Feedback from Bentley Wood High School 2024

• “I enjoyed the training and felt there was a lot of cross over from our safeguarding training and practices. The statistics were thought provoking!”

• “Quite eye opening! Interactive & engaging.”

• “A thoroughly informative and eye-opening CPD. Would like to participate in further training and would and have recommended WISH to one of my close friends, who is a MH ambassador at his work, and who’s son is going through some issues currently.”
