Testimonials
Feedback from CWC:
"Despite not being a domestic abuse service, we see so many women effected by a past history of abuse… having never accessed specialist support. Domestic abuse is such a common experience for the women we support that we intend to offer the programme to all of them."
Feedback from CWC service users :
​
"I plan on continuing it. I’m committed to try and help myself to heal. I currently use it nearly daily."
"...it has certainly helped me to understand my experience deeper. I do find the meditations particularly useful and relaxing"
​
"Using GOGL for me was easy, as you can do it whenever you want with no limitation of time."
