Hear from our one of our students..

I was privileged to firstly get introduced to Kitty Short in the year 2021, when I was in year 7 starting my secondary school journey. I was even more fortunate to be placed in weekly sessions with Kitty, exploring a variety of ideas and acquiring different skills, ranging from sign language to building one’s confidence. I have benefited enormously from Kitty’s interventions and recommend her to anyone who requires a boost in confidence. Kitty has helped me exceedingly, and I whole-heartedly believe she can help you!”.
