Here are some illustrative examples "straight from the horses' mouth".
"If it wasn't for Small Steps I wouldn't go anywhere."
"The centre has given me confidence and helped me to be myself again, not being just a mum and a wife."
"Hand In Hand is a place I can go to be myself and not mum, a place to be myself and not to be judged, a place to chill and chat."
"One to one's and counselling have helped me through some bad times in my life."
"I have gained confidence and have went back to work."
"Your group has helped so much. We were all nervous on the first day but are glad we got past it."
"Thank you very much for all, the help and support you have given me over the past months. Group counselling has made a big change in the way I've been feeling about my life and I know its because I had a top class counsellor and a good group of people, thank-you very much."
"I am looking forward more, less panicked, worried and anxious."
"My friend says I am holding my body differently since I came on this course."
"I'm glad that I made myself come on the course - hopefully the first step to a better future. Jane was a good listener and was very good at explaining things."
"I told my psychiatrist about the stuff we've done on this course and he said they were good exercises to do."
"I offered help to a stranger who looked ill in the street, I'd never have done that before I came on the course. I'd have looked away."
