We really appreciate feedback from course attendees. It helps us to understand what attendees have found useful or not and feedback is used to inform future work.

I am pleased to hear that the majority of the feedback has been positive and that the workers involved have supported attendees learning.

As the attendees will be aware this was the last Anxiety Management course that we facilitated at STEP. It has been a honour to be involved in facilitating this course, but both this and the Depression management courses have now been passed over to our colleagues in the 3rd sector at ZEST.

ZEST have worked alongside us for a number of months so that they can continue the good work. The courses can accessed in the usual way via referrals from GP's or mental health workers.
