I just wanted to say a ‘thank you’ to everyone regarding the course. Thank you to the ladies in the office for the registration side of things – it was brilliant, all the information I required, you gave without being asked – all very clear.  Russell, for his knowledge and teaching skills.  To the Chef who prepared our lunches – I was just expecting the usual ‘tray of mixed sandwiches and crisps’ – a very welcome change.Greg Hassett, Spire Wellesley Hospital.
