Reflections & Experiences From Our Children

group 1261153352
“When I look back at my time living at Holly Tree House between 2017 and 2020 I would describe it as…..Awakening. It made me realise what I wanted in life and that I had to change and become more of a man to achieve what it was that I wanted….And that was home and a future. It was fun it was well organised but most of all it was LIFE CHANGING with some of the NICEST KINDEST AND CARING PEOPLE I EVER MET.

Our lovely boy, left us to go back to him mum in 2020

 
I have never had a bad thing to say about you guys, you’ve all done an amazing job with gaining my trust and respect. It honestly did feel like one big family. The bit I do look back on the most is all the banter we had around the home. Everyone supports everyone there.  We aren’t as close anymore but you’re all still family.

Our lovely girl, left us to live in her own flat at 18 years old in 2025.
