What is happening
in the service?
The month of April
saw yet again some
more changes in the
service. We say
goodbye to some of
our old houses and
hello to some new
ones. Please can I
remind all residents at
Brookfield Road to
start packing your
things and prepare for
the move which is
scheduled to take
place around the end
of May. We want to
ensure this transition
is as swift and as
smooth as possible so
be ready! We have
also been interviewing
new staff members
and are hoping to take
on new staff, one of
whom has 14 years
experience as a police
officer. As we are
expanding we are
always taking on new
staff and looking for
new opportunities to
better the service we
offer.
We have support
coordinators looking
into running drama
workshops, the aim
of which will be to
enhance and
develop key skills.
These workshops
will also be focusing
on interview
techniques giving
you the opportunity
to act out real life
situations that may
occur in a
professional
environment. If you
would like to know
more speak to
either Danielle or
Sharna and they will
be more than happy
to talk you through
the aims of the
project. Once again
guys a reminder to
make sure you are
paying your service
charge on time and
not falling into
arrears, ensure that
you are engaging
with the service and
any other service
supporting
you on your
journey.
As you can see the
weather is starting
to pick up so this is
the perfect
opportunity to start
getting some of
those gardening
workshops up and
running. We had a
successful
workshop at our
house on
Caversham, please
guys keep up the
excellent work,
you’ve all been
doing great in
participating in
workshops. Thank
you to Melanie and
Selda for facilitating
that workshop.
Remember
workshops are
compulsory to
attend but we can
not force you to put
in effort, so please
do your best as the
effort really does
pay off.
