"Ex-patient of two admissions to Hartley and one..."

I am eternally grateful to the staff particularly on Hartley ward for all their kindness and support towards me on both of my admissions. Although I might not have realised it at the time, the staff there have saved my life so many times and I'm so thankful that they did. The staff are absolutely brilliant at what they do, always ensuring I was safe as well as maintaining my dignity and respecting me. It's not the nicest place that you can end up in but definitely as hospitals go it is the best! Thank you Hartley for some of the funniest moments that never failed to cheer us up when we were feeling down and for all the support you have given to me to help me get my life back! I had my first meeting at college today and I could not have got here if it wasn't for all of you

Lots of love xxx
