 During subsequent conversations with lead workers and CEO. I came to understand just how successful this programme was with 40 of 42 participants recording a positive outcome in relation to employment, further education and/or training - a truly extraordinary ‘hit rate’ given the background and learning difficulties of many participants. I have no hesitation in commending this programme, and organisation.
