Phew, is anyone else hot?!
We hope you’re all staying safe and having some fun in the sun. Here’s what we’ve been up to this June:
Our Client Engagement Team recently hosted their bi-annual quiz in which teams of staff and clients compete for the top spot (and pizza).
In the end, Kings Road took the crown with a fantastic score of 46/50!
We also had amazing teams from Portsmouth, the Isle of Wight, Andover, and Fareham.
Our client engagement co-ordinator Robyn popped into the service to deliver their trophy and pizza vouchers.
Here’s client Lily and staff member Michelle proudly holding the trophy.
Check out this huge pile of donations from our supporter Suzie and the band of friends she rallied to collect donations on our behalf.
After seeing our team leader Kayleigh’s post asking the community for help, Suzie went above and beyond by gathering an overwhelming amount of donations through her beauty business Bear Faced Beauty, clients, and friends.
Kayleigh, team leader at Patrick House, said: “The donations included full bottles of perfume, skincare, make-up, sanitary products, toiletries, and so much more — items that will make such a meaningful difference to women who are going through incredibly difficult times.
“Thank you, Suzie, for your compassion, kindness, and for rallying so many people together to help others. Your support means more than words can say.”
Our mental health recovery worker Sophie has been doing a brilliant job keeping her clients entertained by organising trips to local museums.
Here’s one of our Portsmouth clients Mark enjoying a trip to the Submarine Museum in Gosport.
To finish off the day, the two spent some time in the Mary Rose Museum and the Warrior ship.
Sophie and Mark had a fantastic time!
The team at our Southampton Day Centre recently got a visit from the BEK Sourdough Bakery – a family-owned artisan bakery based in Southampton and Gosport.
The bakery donated a bunch of goodies that will help keep our clients in the area well-fed. The donation is part of the bakery’s Angel Board initiative, where customers can prepay for food items to be passed on to someone in need.
We are incredibly grateful for Tamas, Angela, and the rest of their team for choosing to support our Day Centre with their initiative. Gestures like this mean the world to us and our clients, and it’s so great to see the community rally behind the cause.
Here’s some of our fantastic Day Centre team with Tamas, one of the bakery owners, looking very excited to share the treats out to clients!
Our clients at the Day Centre in Southampton were in for a treat as our brilliant volunteer Ian pulled out all the stops to serve up a highly-requested ploughman’s lunch.
Ian is always going the extra mile for our clients and doing the right things for the right reasons.
We want to give a massive shoutout to him for his hard work and effort – well done Ian!
Our central services team got together recently to celebrate Pride Month by wearing the rainbow! Here they are in a picture that was snapped outside our Fareham office between rain showers.
Here at Two Saints, it’s important to us that everyone can show their true colours without fear of discrimination.
‘Everyone matters’ is more than just one of our values, it’s who we are – and a something that we use to guide our actions and decisions every day!
