At A Way Out We Support

At A Way Out we support our clients, be they women, young people or families – all year round – and we make sure that we celebrate with them landmarks in their progress – this could be a young mum gaining the self-esteem to confidently step outside of her own home and attend an appointment unaccompanied; a young person having the courage to forget their past and follow their dreams;  a young woman securing accommodation of her own and living independently; or a woman celebrating freedom from drug addiction.  Each milestone is a victory to rejoice in and a moment to be remembered.

It is often the small things that make a real difference to how someone can be feeling – whether they are struggling with a bad day, or excited over a personal victory.  Receiving an unexpected gift can be that one thing that makes a huge difference to their day.  Sometimes that gift can be as simple as being on the receiving end of a kind smile, a friendly nod and a simple ‘Hello’.

Being in the position to pass on a gift, especially when it is unexpected, is a real ‘feel good’ moment – both for the giver and the receiver.

Here’s a challenge to be that person who lifts the spirits of others, to be that person who offers a kindly smile and make a change someone’s day.

Each year at A Way Out we aim to collect around 200 donated chocolate eggs to gift our clients to help to lift their spirits at Easter and let them know that they are loved.  If you would like to help by contribute  an egg or make a donation towards the work of A Way Out please get in touch via our email info@awayout.co.uk or 01642 655071.
