Phoenix Workshops have had a profound effect on improving participants’ sense of wellbeing and quality of life:
“I’m so grateful for all the help you guys have given me. Phoenix was a life-changing experience … I’m in the best form I’ve been in for years. You deserve some credit for that. Thank you!”
“It was a pleasure going to the Phoenix Workshops … Meeting the guys in the group helped me a lot in my attitude and confidence. So a big thank you to you and the Bobby Goldsmith Foundation for doing this and also for being there in lots of other ways.”
“The Phoenix Workshop proved to be a valuable tool in helping me reassess my life and provided me with a new sense of self worth and self confidence; something I had lost after being out of the workforce for so many years.”
