We are thrilled to share the fantastic feedback we received from the recent Neurodiversity and the Outdoors training session, led by NEL Faraway CIC and Care Plus Group. The training aimed to equip participants with the knowledge and skills to better support neurodiverse individuals in outdoor and nature-based activities.
Glowing Testimonials
The feedback from attendees has been overwhelmingly positive. Here are a couple of testimonials that highlight the impact of the training:
“The training course was possibly the best I’ve attended. Warm-hearted, informative, and engaging.”
“Despite having a fair amount of neurodiversity training recently, there were plenty of new and useful tips and information that made it valuable. Thanks so much for organising it!”
