I have really bad anxiety, I found it really hard to be near people. Nacro helped me, they started off by having a separate area on my own for tutoring, then they made an area next to the classroom, and now inside it. They always support me, my anxiety is better, I feel included. Nacro never made me feel different or bad, they just had a clear plan that I was happy with.Nacro Peterborough Education Centre Learner
