Help transform lives like Johnny’s
Hello, I’m John but prefer to be called Johnny and live in Victoria Project.
I enjoy staying here and one day hope to have my own tenancy. It’s important to me to be as independent as possible. I need support to enhance my daily living skills. I like to make the most out of life and enjoy concerts, going out for meals, the car boot sale and other outings with my friends. I like to work in the garden within the project. I really enjoy art and music spend lots of time doing drawings and singing. I like the staff to support me to go shopping especially for new clothes as I like to look my best. Sometimes, I like to visit the charity shops to see if I can get a bargain.
The Victoria Project is looking for enthusiastic carers who can help to make a real difference to people we support. Victoria is a Mental Health Recovery project which provides 24/7 support to 13 adults. When people come to the Victoria project, they have aspirations to develop their daily living skills which would help them move into their own tenancy or a less supported environment.
Are you ready to make a real difference to everyone at the Victoria Project?
