When Sam lost his home a few years ago, things were tough. But when he moved into Cambridge Cyrenians' supported accommodation, he finally found the stability he needed. He appreciated that our Project Workers visited him at home on days and times that worked for him, and with that flexible, ongoing support, Sam began to rebuild.
He even found joy in our community allotment, where he discovered a passion for growing produce, and grew his social circle along the way.
Sam also shared his gratitude for Louisa, our Mental Health Nurse, who helped him better understand and manage his mental health.
“I feel that the support Cambridge Cyrenians provided me ‘put me right’ again,” he told us.
Now living independently – a feat he managed with support from our Older Homeless Service, Sam has had a great fresh start. We’re proud to be a part of his journey.
