Testimonials

What a wonderful day at the Mental Health & Wellbeing Scotland Awards. We felt very proud to be in the room with others within the sector doing fantastic work, and to be able to celebrate them and the work they do. The speakers really made a huge impact on us – they were inspirational, and I personally felt like I learned so much. I would also like to say that Dawn and Bobbie were so welcoming, knowledgeable and friendly and we congratulate them for putting on such a great event – please do come back to Scotland!

I just wanted to share how amazing I thought the event was last week. The whole concept behind it, the content you weaved in, the professionalism, the innovation…I am full of admiration for it and it was a great experience to be part of, so thank you.
