Sylvie Mohabir
“The tour was inspirational and gave me a spark to do similar initiatives for my own organisation and community. The members of the team we met were bubbling with enthusiasm and ideas, it’s a great place to learn from and get involved.”
Sylvie joined Edventure for the day from the Network of Wellbeing in Totnes.
