Many people say they found being involved with the Children of Craig-y-nos project a healing process.
For the first time, and I include myself, we were able to talk about those experiences in childhood which had been buried deep in our minds, dark secrets from the past which we dared not talk about. Now it has all been brought out into the open and we realise that it is no longer a taboo subject, and we feel healed by the process of being able to talk and share these experiences with others who went through it .
