Feedback & Evaluation

Quotes from participants:

"This workshop gave me a whole boost with confidence. I had left work very demoralised as I was made redundant and retired into a shell. These weeks made me feel valued again"

"What you gave me is something that money can never buy. You enabled me, not only to go into a school but to interact with the children. My confidence has grown and I can now see a future. Please feel free to contact me if you would like me to come back"

"I loved every minute whilst doing the course, and I learned so much about theatre and performing arts as well as other things too. I met some fantastic people on the course and who works at Zinc. Zinc has been great in supporting me and has given me more training. I think being involve with Zinc really has been amazing for me, my self-esteem and for my future careers plans."
