Testimonials

‘It’s been a fantastic opportunity to really help to make a difference to people’s lives. The staff are remarkable and really do care about the clients that they support. Watching people grow and develop in confidence and the tenacity shown by everyone to help clients achieve their dreams and aspirations says it all. They are an inspiration and leave no stone unturned to help bring about change. It may only be a small charity but it’s got a big heart.’

Janine

‘I started to work for SHAP in April 2018 and I can honestly say that it is a breath of fresh air to work with so many hardworking dedicated people. I have seen with my own eyes how they go the extra distance in helping homeless people sustain their tenancy. They give lots of support and offer alternative ways to be able to do this. I am enjoying my job and learning new skills working in this environment and with multi agency approaches.’

Kevin

‘Having worked for SHAP for nearly 30 years says it all.’

Marg

‘I have worked for SHAP for 17 years on various schemes and I can say with all honesty no two days are ever the same and very rarely go as planned. I have worked with wonderful colleagues over the years, many who have become as close as family to me and we have shared the successes and the failures. The young people I have worked with over the years never fail to inspire me with how they attempt to get on with their lives despite having had difficult backgrounds and supporting them is what makes this job worth while.’

Lesley

‘It’s fantastic to see people’s passion for their work and the people they are helping. Everyone goes the extra mile. I enjoy the variety my role brings and look forward to coming to work every day.’

Pat

‘SHAP have given me the opportunity to work in the community in which I live ensuring our young people are empowered to make informed decisions and take control of their own lives. I have been supported by SHAP to develop and build positive professional relationships with colleagues, partner agencies and young people. I look forward to continuing to make positive contributions to our community though the work I do with SHAP.’
