Brighter Path Birthday Party
In October, Caroline and John de Bono hosted a birthday party for Brighter Path. This was our first celebration since the official launch in 2018 and long overdue. Past and present Brighter Path care leavers and all our staff were invited and enjoyed a fun evening together. There was music, drinks and food including a birthday cake. It was wonderful catching up with everyone and also celebrating all that we have achieved in these last 6 years. We have known some of these young people a long time and it is wonderful to see how far they have come since leaving their children’s home. Caroline made a short speech followed by two of our alumni who described how much their lives have changed from being part of the Brighter Path programme.
