The future is bright

Posted By Maxre7

"The future is bright"

About: Arnold Lodge Regional Secure Unit

(as a volunteer/advocate),

Posted on behalf of a patient. 

I've been at Arnold Lodge in the Women's service for 18 months and I'm now returning to a PIPE prison.

I'd like to thank my MDT for all their guidance and help whilst I've been here.

They have helped me to change life long habits and given me the tools to support me to protect myself and progress in the future. I never thought this would be possible as I've been engaging with purging and self-harm for 20 years and now feel really positive about my future.

They have given me a new way of looking at things. I can really see a good future for myself.

Thank you all.
