A moment to celebrate yesterday, as another of our service users finally moved in to his new personal accommodation. A big thanks to Axis Supported Housing for making this happen.
In Loving Memory
“To know her was to love her” That statement has never rang so true than with Sheila. Sheila was a valued member of the WYCCP team from 2013 - 2018 and she was very loved and she will be greatly missed.. “Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard but always near, still loved, still missed, and held so dear”.
Change starts at Home!
On a recent visit to one of our service users, we noticed this hanging up in his house. We are so proud of how he is navigating change and how determined he is, to keep moving forward.
Family Support Group
Yesterday we had the privilege of Alison Lowe (Deputy Major for Policing & Crime) come to speak with some of our family service users. It was an opportunity to share stories and experiences and show support to one another.
Service User Feedback
The WYCCP team go the extra mile for our service users, not because we have to but because we want to. Our team genuinely care and this is summed up in the words of this service user. “They actually care and want to help people and do what they say. They treat you like a person, show love and support, that is still ongoing”.
Fresh-Start Friday's
The weather may not have been the best but our Fresh-Start group still braced the cold, to clean up the local area. They filled a total of 9 bags …..What a team!
