In the midst of supporting our clients through crisis there are moments when the staff (and clients) of A Way Out are completely blown away by acts of random kindness. In the past month the organisation received support from a wonderful lady, Becky Cunningham, who opened up her home inviting her friends and family to an evening of live music. Besides providing an enjoyable evening’s entertainment, Becky and her friends raised a generous donation to support A Way Out’s core costs – an area of funding that is completely vital to running the organisation. An equally wonderful gent, Craig, with parents and students from Zi Shiying Tang Soo Do also contributed a much appreciated donation.
Offering support to others is a life changing experience. One volunteer who regularly supports A Way Out’s weekly night time outreach on the streets of Stockton described how the training and volunteering experience boosted her own self confidence and completely changed her approach to the vulnerable women we engage.Such support is enabling A Way Out, now in its 17 year, to strategically develop from its Stockton base, to meet an increasing need across Cleveland and the Tees Valley. By taking up the opportunity of a life changing experience you can, in turn help to transform the lives of vulnerable women, young people and families in our local area.
