*Emily’s Story
Emily lost her home through no fault of her own.
She came to us when she was very sad and needed a place to live. Emily stayed in the hostel whilst she used the counselling to talk about her feelings, and over time she got happier and felt better so she could move into one of our flat, which she loved! She decorated it with her things and house plants.
Later she was able to move into her own independent home.
Emily is really happy with her new home and extremely grateful to the staff at Harrogate Homeless Project for the help. She says they always had time to talk with her and share a joke. She doesn’t know where she would be without the help and support.
