Would love to hear your thoughts...

Following two days of 7 SAFE Steps training, we caught up with our four professional actors who brought to life Sandeep in the simulations. They are the fabulous 4: Tegan Braithwaite, Charlie Baz, Sami Afuni and Kyra Thompson. This is an opportunistic recording of the debrief and the feedback they provided.
