A real sense of well-being

Posted By Maxre7

"A real sense of well-being"

About: Arnold Lodge Regional Secure Unit

(as a volunteer/advocate),

Posted on behalf of a Patient

I get a lot from being involved in the patients forum and other service user involvement groups. I’ve even managed to chair it once and it gave me a real sense of well-being. Even though things don’t always go the way you would like them to its still good to get your point across in a safe way.’
