“I have really been struggling to find the words to describe my thoughts about the weekend I spent at C.R.U.S.H with Crossroad Arts. But then I realised it wasn’t about what I thought of the weekend, it was more about what I felt. When you find a place of comfort, of safety, a place where you can express yourself with no judgement or expectations, then you are free. When you are considered, nurtured and trusted, relationships form and infinite love resonates through every element surrounding you. This creates bonds that can never be broken. I thank and love you all, for every moment of love and light you shared with me”
“C.R.U.S.H exceeded our expectations. We met incredible people made new friends caught up with old friends and learnt the deaf blind alphabet. Can’t wait to see you all next year!”
