About: Change Grow Live Cambridgeshire / Wisbech

(as a service user),

My story is that I still use drugs and my worker does not judge me for doing so, or offer any less support that I do. I have been homeless for 3 years ,mostly by choice due to the extortionate service charges services take from you.

I have called Steve many times for a hear to listen and he always is there.

If ut was not for CGL I would not have the safety net in place I have, I am currently in a position where I have saved the money for a deposit for a flat and currently in the process of finding housing and stability for the first time in a while I have a supportive partner who is there for me.

Life is looking better.

Once stable and housed I will work with Steve on my goals to stop using drugs and get my life back

Hi DreadlockMark

I absolutely get the whole needing to have stable housing before addressing drug use. Great to hear you have a clear plan in place and Im sure reduction has been encouraged by Steve to get you ready to stop using when you are housed.

Excellent work good luck with the house hunting and let us know how you get on.

Thanks

Paul
