David had addiction issues, his physical health was awful and he’s suffered multiple overdoses. His partner had recently overdosed and died.
He desperately needed help. Our generous donors made it possible for us to show David that there are people that care about him.
Once he felt ready, David took the courageous step of undergoing a detox programme. Then from the calm and safety of our Emergency Service, David was able to access grief and addiction counselling.
Your gift could help another man like David.
At Galway Simon we work with the talents and skills our residents already have to help rebuild their self-esteem. It turned out that David was a trained chef.
We encouraged David to use the kitchen in our Emergency Service to reignite his passion for cooking.
His housemates raved about the delicious dinners he’d served them up.
That new sense of confidence and self-worth was transformational.
Without our generous supporters our Emergency Service wouldn’t exist.
