Welcome to Debbie
CASBA today welcomes our new Executive Manager, Debbie Powell. All of the staff team are very much looking forward to working with her.
Debbie has nearly 20 years of experience working in advocacy and on taking this new role said: "I am really excited to be here and am looking forward to getting to know everyone. This is a great opportunity to support CASBA on the next stage of their journey and make a real difference to the lives of people in South Birmingham."​
CASBA's first Freedom Project course
Eight women completed CASBA's first Freedom Project course this spring and the feedback about it has been great.
"I feel like me again", "This has really boosted my confidence" and "All women should do this course" are just a few of the comments we've had from participants. We'll be running our specially adapted version for women with Learning Disabilities again later this year, so if you'd like to join, contact Jo or Debbie.
You can find details of the other training courses we run here.
