Testimonials – feedback from letters and end of course presentation.
A small selection of typical comments from our work over the last 18 months or so.
“Thank you for the all the work and support you have given me and still do. If it wasn’t for Creativation and yourself and Andy, I know for sure, I would still be self-harming and wouldn’t want to live. I was a total mess when I first came to Creativation class and now, some months down the line, you both have given me a new lease of life.
“Before I have a very low opinion of life and those closest to me but now I would like to share that life is a gift within its own right. You might be in prison now, but you won’t be forever. When times are hard, remember you have got each other and different support networks available. I would like to say a big thank you to Donna and Sue for the support they have gave and the new links they made possible.”
“This course has helped me become more aware of ill health issues that I have been experiencing and understand the different systems and knowing who to turn to when I feel in crisis or in need of help.
The course has opened my eyes to a range of differences and given me tools and strategies to help me stop self harming and move forward with my life.”
“[The course] gives you the knowledge and problem solving techniques to manage your illness better…..
…. I’m still involved in Creativation course. I get one to one after care support. When I get released, I will still be working with them to help me stay focused and be part of my successful rehabilitation back into the community.”
“This course has given me more self belief and self esteem about myself. It has helped me listen and find new ways of dealing with everyday life. Donna and Sue are always there to help us, plus the lads on the course was great and easy to get on with.”
“I have previously been involved with several other mental health teams and have never received the backup that I was promised by these other teams. I have to say I lost faith in these types of organisations until I met the team from Creativation, who I believe genuinely care about the people that they help.”
“As a family, we are extremely grateful that even after his release from prison, Creativation have continued to support and assist him in managing his daily life which has helped me to help him as well. His self-esteem and life is still improving on a daily basis thanks to the techniques and life skills that Ms Adams and here team have taught him and he now has positive plans for the future.”
“Thank you for everything Donna. I have attended many courses in the past years and I can truly say Creativation has made change in the way I communicate and think twice before I act.”
“The course is run as a very relaxed and informal group but carries very important material that seems to come out better in this way of teaching. I feel myself as to start with as very non-confident and negative person now a fully productive member of this excellent team (as a mentor) and a stronger person.
