Testimonials

This page contains testimonials from people who have attended or hosted workshops, presentations and talks by me, as well as people with whom I've worked in other ways. The number of testimonials below do not reflect the number of activities I have done, rather that I only recently began to request testimonials. Thus, the list will hopefully grow in future. If you have attended something by me and would like to send a testimonial, I would be very grateful. You can contact me here.

"The IPSV training was specially tailored for first responders within the health and justice clusters in regional NSW.  Attendees were very appreciative of the personal experience of the presenter, Louise, and whilst most are aware that IPSV exists, have never heard about it in this manner.  This type of presentation is by far the best way to learn, and the attendees were openly encouraged to participate, question, and, share information.  Attendees left with new information, strategies and awareness - all keen to advance the cause and bring IPSV into the open.  Biggest thanks to Louise, who does an excellent job - clearly passionate, extremely knowledgeable and with a great personality that really delivers - we say thanks!  We are already planning some additional sessions, it is so needed out here."
~Julie Grey, Coordinator, Staying Home Leaving Violence, Orana Local Area Command, NSW Police Force
"Louise McOrmond-Plummer is an inspirational trainer and educator with a unique combination of personal experience and academic knowledge.  Her presentations are professional, engaging and well-balanced. Despite the confronting nature of the subject of IPSV Louise is confident and articulate in front of both small and large groups. I recommend her training to all community, health and justice sector workers."
