St Clements have been providing medical services to Trinity for nearly 10 years.

I remain passionate about helping develop holistic packages of care, especially for complex post-traumatic stress disorder, almost universally experienced by this client group. Creating a therapeutic residential unit will offer real hope that many people’s futures can become brighter.

I have misgivings about some aspects of how our society and government perceives the underprivileged and those with mental health problems and feel not enough support and care is given to these groups so have been immensely impressed with the support Trinity offers. It feels a privilege to continue to develop a service that can have a real impact.
