Sarah Porter, Sussex County Swimming Coordinator - Voice Protection Workshop, K2 Crawley, 27 February 2010
A rather late but heartfelt thank you for an enjoyable 3 hours last Saturday. It was great to see teachers getting really involved and getting some useful information and techniques that will be of direct benefit to them. The evaluation forms were all very complimentory of your delivery and enthusiasm, and I agree entirely, it was a pleasure to be in your workshop. I have forwarded comments to the I.O.S. regards teachers feeling that emphasis should be stressed upon teachers at qualification time to look after their voice.
