This will enable women to have more confidence to go seek work, to attend an exercise class, to start new hobbies, reconnect with friends or family, decrease financial debt from abuse. Also often survivors volunteer on my course so they can give back to other survivors. There is a 76.5 % increase in having more energy which will lessen the risk of long term health conditions There is 63% increase in confidence and self worth which will open up a whole new world for these women to find themselves again and a massive decrease in social isolation due to meeting new people.

Feedback is taken from the women: "Claire taught me that it wasn't all my fault, that I have nothing to feel ashamed off. She explained how I reacted to abuse by being quiet and small was a normal bodily protective measure, now I get it and I am starting to be more assertive and have a voice" "Thank you for delivering such an amazing course, my mental and physical wellbeing has improvbed so much. I feel a more confident person, and will take away a more healthy attitude going forward" "I Feel calm and at peace with my past, I'm moving on from past hurt and see a positive future for me and my son"
