What have others said about training at Equality Network?

“Really enjoyed the session, especially great to come together to learn how to support trans people in the political climate right now.”
“a fountain of knowledge. I found the history, facts, videos and images all useful in the training and I will apply the training to my life and practice”
“an excellent lead for the training both using his own experiences but also showing his passion for the subject meaning the training was coming from a place of care rather than feeling like it was a "tick box" type of session - really enjoyed the training overall.”
