Testimonials
“Pete created a safe and mutually supportive group to explore work challenges together. Pete’s facilitation style is both empathetic and practical, enabling us to learn from fellow participants in a non-judgemental and gentle way. I came away from each session with a fresh outlook and solutions to apply in my work setting, and increased confidence and resolve to develop my practice further.”
~ Jess Waterman, Barnwood Trust
“Being part of this reflective practice group has been invaluable to my work in academic patient and public involvement (PPI). In the midst of a busy schedule, it has offered a meaningful space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the core values that drive my co-production work. The sessions have helped me stay grounded and intentional, and I’ve found the shared insights and support from others in the group both affirming and inspiring.”
~ Dr Sarah Rees, Public Involvement Lead, National Centre for Mental Health, Cardiff University
