| Missed the date by somewhat, but was it a success? I do know she is very keen to get more females certified, and from what I understand, does some work with NAS Surrey and even the SABP MH/LD Trust (Don't SABP send their possible ASC-ers to SLaM, though?) along with Sussex Partnership. Oh, and was ... |
