Feedback from our Mood Matters Workplace Course

"The MMW session that AWARE ran for us was amazing. The trainer kept the audience engaged and even got us laughing throughout, but he took care to keep the subject at hand serious and informative. The team members all sang their praises afterwards and thoroughly enjoyed the session. We look forward to welcoming AWARE NI again."
