Consumer Focus Group
On Thursday the 19th March 2010 a group of people got together to talk about self directed approaches. Here is some of thier feedback:
"Great to hear some easy to understand explinations"
" I am relatively new to all of this, its funny, you hear the words and hear people talking about this stuff, but sometimes until you hear it coming from another person whose been through it, it doesnt seem clear"
"Often when people ask what do you need unless you have an idea of what is on offer you can't come up with things out of your head. Someone might mention something specific and then you will see how that is helpful."
"I just wanted to say a big thank you for today's group. I found it informative and interactive and more than anything, I really felt like I was being heard."
