Client testimonial

“I left prison in 2016 and Pathwaze contacted me about 2 months after my release.  I did not think that they would actually be able to help me because I had companies that said they would but never actually did anything. 

Pathwaze made sure that I was accountable to myself by ensuring I attend my probation appointments and other important appointments I needed to get to.  They checked in on my wellbeing – in fact, they would never leave me alone they kept nagging me and always kept me on my toes.

As a result, I had to learn patience, I learnt it because they were patient with me.  I eventually started to open up to my Support Worker and they made sure that I was doing what I was supposed to do to keep in line.  They kept me out of trouble, to be honest.  I started to feel like I wanted more for myself and felt motivated to get into work.  I was volunteering at a local soup kitchen, this also helped with my development. 

My support workers have always been accessible, I can always contact them and they listened to my needs – see what happens when the right people help!  Pathwaze helped me to get my own social housing, I am excited to start moving in.  I now have a more positive view of life and now have proof that things are achievable.  Look at me now, I couldn’t see myself how I am now 3 years ago.  I now have a fulltime job and would like to go to university to be a youth worker. Thank you Pathwaze for everything.”
