Start Afresh

January is often a time when people choose to start afresh, perhaps deciding to change lifelong habits, perhaps committing to learning a new skill; sometimes giving up after just one day, every so often achieving lasting success.

At A Way Out we encourage and empower vulnerable women, young people and families to commit to starting afresh what ever time of the year it may be… supporting clients to make that first step to transform their own lives.  Working in partnership with other support agencies, schools, housing providers, addiction recovery services, police, PCC, probation and prison service, A Way Out collaboratively offers support and guidance to enable life changing ‘new starts’ which we hope will last a lifetime.  Our dedicated staff and volunteers are there every step of the way and even when those steps take a backward tumble, A Way Out continues to offer positive encouragement and support… however many times it takes.

 

The success of our work is due to the commitment each staff member and volunteer makes to supporting every individual client, and to the strength of the collective support offered through collaborative work with partners.  By linking with Stockton Town Pastors who generously provide weekly use of their bespoke vehicle to use alongside our own, A Way Out offers weekly day time and evening outreach services across both Middlesbrough and Stockton.   Our evening outreach sessions are enhanced by the addition of staff from specialist services who join our team offering support in relation to domestic violence (My Sister’s Place) and specialist health care (CGL recovery service).  By working together we all make a difference in the lives of others.

It’s not to late to make a commitment this year to join us to facilitate lasting change –volunteering with any of our services / fundraising / helping to raise awareness – just go to www.awayout.co.uk for more info or ring 01642 655071.
