Nacro really understood me, they were so helpful, so friendly, they treated me with respect, never looking down on me. My mental health started to improve. I just started to love going every week, it gave me something to look forward too. If I didn’t understand something, the tutors explained it. They never did it for me, they just changed the way they explained it, showed me the steps, but let me work it out for myself. I love it, it makes a real difference. They always have time for you.
