Volunteering

Volunteering at Somewhere house has given me an opportunity to give back to a place that offered me unconditional love whilst I was dealing with my traumas that led me to a life of addiction and unmanageability. I had no boundaries,  which left me with no structure or routine. After nineteen months at Somwhere house I am developing healthy tools to manage my traumas through having healthy boundaries  and relationships with myself and others.  Being a volunteer has increased my confidence, my assertiveness and self worth. It has allowed me to feel part of a team which has enabled me to suppoprt new arrivals to Somewhere house.
