We do like to go into the weekend with a smile on our face…..but even better if it’s from one of the people we support…🩷

Just had this lovely feedback from the team in Morpeth, Northumberland.

On Wednesday we brought you up to date with adventurous Gavin and what he’s been up to…

Well he’s pretty chuffed with the results as you can see – we are now having to fend off possible ‘celebrity’ agents who want to represent him!

If you missed catching up on his latest exploits – go to the link here📲

Right need to catch up with Liz as she may need to work on that potential BAFTA/Oscar speech – empowering people has its upside!😉

🧐When we say we have an adventurer in our midst….

We are not telling porkies….😉

You will recall we have featured Oaklea supported Gavin from Morpeth in Northumberland this year – well when he’s not busy giving back volunteering in his community….he likes to have a bit of ‘me time’ out & about (made possible of course with top support from our Morpeth based care team…)

📲Click on the link to see where & what he’s been doing – you could say he’s been on the crest of a wave – and you’ll get to know why having a hot brew at height involves divine intervention!

Big thanks to Liz Fish and Ruth Hall and our wider Morpeth team for enabling this – it’s certainly makes us want to put the kettle on🫖
