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.
Where are they now? Rhys’ story
Five years have passed since the making of this video but we are delighted that Rhys has kept in touch and pops in to share news from time to time.
