Day 6: Achievements
Every year we ask all of the people living in our supported housing about their biggest achievement or change during their time with Derventio. Despite the challenges of 2020, many people have done positive things this year – from gaining confidence, to sorting their debt or reconnecting with family. Your support through the 12 Days of Christmas Appeal will help residents to take the next step and move on to an independent home where they can move closer to their goals.
What has been your biggest achievement or change during your time with Derventio?
“I've been able to concentrate on myself”
“Got off the drugs, alcohol and kept out of trouble.”
“I can live by myself and have more time for me and my friends and family.”
“My biggest achievement is on target to be off subutex by Christmas”
“Gaining confidence”
“Working out on my mental health issues, i'm getting there due to your help and advice.”
“I have made a new relationship with my family.”
“Gained a healthy weight over last 6 months of living here”
“Connecting with the family again. in the last year and recently i am now more then ready to move on - their faith has given confidence in myself (Support Staff)”
“Since moving here my biggest achievement is I'm a lot happier and I feel better that I feel I can go back to my counselling”
