“The positive impact I have observed of Speaking Up on those taking part has been truly incredible. I have never come across a programme that has had so much transformative power. For many of the people I have spoken to who have done the course, it has literally turned round their and often their family’s lives. What a great example of a low cost but extremely high value social programme!”
Ben Bradshaw, MP for Exeter.
