Our wonderful volunteer Stevie has shared his experience of volunteering at the shelter. He says ‘volunteering here has opened my eyes and heart in the best way and I wholeheartedly recommend taking just one evening out of your busy schedule’. Read here - https://t.co/FvoypBO3sR
And the first couple to ever stay with us at the shelter have moved into a one bedroom apartment, a short bus ride from the college they are studying at. They are very pleased and we are happy to hear of such a positive next chapter for some of our former guests!
Rounding off this week with a bit of weeding! We’re also happy to be finishing this week with some good news from some of our former guests. One guest who is now settled into his own place came by the shelter this week to say hello and kindly donate a generous bag of tinned food.
Thank-you to our fantastic supporters who have helped us operate in the last year. We're asking today; could make your donation regular? Even small amounts, if regular, enable us to manage our income and help more people in a planned way. https://t.co/Y1jNyyNqWf
