Myself, the staff and patients have nothing but praise for the facilitator and your company. He is a real asset to your company. The facilitator was great with our patients, ASD, learning difficulties, mental health and deaf. He was able to change himself according to the patient’s need, holding back if he needed to and encouraging those who needed it. We hope to with your company again sometime soon.

Yesterday, our primary school had the pleasure of hosting an extraordinary circus skills workshop, and it was an experience that will be remembered fondly by both students and staff for a long time. The workshop was led by an incredibly engaging and funny instructor who immediately captured the attention and hearts of everyone present.
Miss L B
Just wanted to pass on how fab your workshop was at our event today! The facilitator had the crowd (of all ages!) fully engaged in the sessions and it was so lovely to see people having fun! We were battling with the elements and he was able to manage that with ease, offering solutions to the attendees who had found themselves in the midst of a sandstorm! I had lots of positive feedback from the general public too.
Mrs A H
Our customers really enjoyed the workshops, and parents enjoyed the opportunity to be creative along side their children. The facilitators adapted well to delivering the workshops in public library settings.
Mrs C M
Top-notch facilitators who always keep our kids engaged and entertained
