Testimonials

'We were really inspired with what you are doing with Triage in Cardiff. Over the last 3 years I have been disappointed with how the original concept has been diluted and in many places it has become a referral scheme from custody. And then along comes a gem in Cardiff!! You are fortunate in having the perfect environment but I was hugely impressed with how you have created a model project. It was really good to hear about the real case studies, talk to custody staff that are clearly convinced by its effectiveness, and meet your committed and knowledgeable team. It’s therefore no surprise that you are, even after such a short operating period, having such a dramatic impact on first time entrants and re-offending’.
