My daughter has been attending The Hamlet for just over two years. During that time we have been thrilled to see her grow in confidence and self-belief. As parents, we have been more than impressed by what The Hamlet provides for all its trainees, not just in terms of the high quality, purposeful, and relevant vocational and life skills it helps to develop, but in the way it fosters resilience and encourages positive relationships between trainees, staff, volunteers, and the wider community. I would not hesitate to recommend The Hamlet to the parents/carers of any prospective trainee.
