Of the programme, Patrice said:

“Thank you for the wonderful and insightful evening!
 I thoroughly enjoyed it and most of all very much happy with the mentor you have allocated to me!

“It’s been such a short period of time since I’ve been on this programme, and already it’s been so productive. They need to run programmes like this in schools”
