Training Feedback

I learnt about myself and how to be more assertive!

Personal Development Workshop Participant

Whilst living at Peasholme, I have started doing the cooking classes which I have found very useful. I've also had the chance to do my Food Hygiene Certificate; in all the time I worked in hotels I've never been able to do this course.

The Peasholme Centre has given me the opportunity to discover my creative potential, giving me the confidence in my self and my abilities.
