Winding down for Christmas
Wishing all our young people, staff, volunteers, trustees and supporters a very happy Christmas. May it be full of fun and laughter.

Ashley’s story
“I suffer with anxiety and depression, which is why I am with the Rendezvous…..”
This is Ashley’s story in her own words (we’ve changed her name and the image is not her!). She has made the most of everything we’ve offered her – learning, 1:1 support and help with applications. She now volunteers at the learning sessions and we are extremely proud of the way she has grown.

New faces on the Board
We had a busy summer recruiting new board members and are delighted to announce three new appointments to the Board of Trustees* and a number of exciting appointments to our group of Associate Trustees** who work closely with the Chief Exec and staff team.

Community Fundraising – with cake!
Local man, Roger Francis, was due to celebrate his 80th Birthday at Sherborne Football club.

Ready for work
