Our Stories of Change

One of the unique things about What Matters to You is that, as we have been working to support families in Dundee and East Ayrshire, we have sought to gather stories of change. No matter how modest that change may at first seem it has been critical for us to record these and to share these anonomised personal stories of change.

 

Your experience of WM2U

 ..It has pushed me to be more creative. I don’t think I can do it, then I find myself able to do it. It has pushed me to think in more different ways about myself. ..I am using parts of my brain that don’t get used.

This garden is getting me a chance to move from ideas on paper. It gives me the extra experience and creates networking opportunities as well. I want to make that space what we want it to be. I would like something nice for the children. I know how bland and structured school can be.

The garden is such a good opportunity to try something new, it’s so fun and satisfying. The social aspect too is nice – it boosts confidence and gives joy and pleasure…It is a treat to go to something outside the house.
