Feedback from people who have used the service

"The team are very kind, calm, welcoming and provide as much information as they can and make you feel comfortable."

This was the first time I have rung. I was met with a listening ear, which was just what I needed. I was feeling very alone with my condition and talking and listening really helped me know there are others out there with the same issues.
