    • I was given excellent support by my LM who made it very clear from the first say that if I needed help or guidance there was no need for me to feel ashamed or afraid to ask for it, and so I was able to make full use of this. there were many tings that I didn't understand or know how to do and every time that I did ask for help it was provided in a really kind way that wasn't patronising or a deterrent for me to ask the next time.
