Bill

Long term unemployed and suffering with depression and a sense of hopelessness, Bill was supported by our engagement officer to volunteer within our Malthouse Gardens. The sessions enabled confidence building and reduced Bill's anxiety levels.

Feeling more in control, Bill was able to understand how his emotional state was affecting his everyday living. The volunteering supported an improvement in his wellbeing and he was able to secure full time employment.
