Immensely proud of our Man of Merit Dan. Not only has he set himself the goal of staying sober, after months of volunteering he has just got a full time paid job helping others recover from substance misuse and addiction. Steve Gallant QGM Darryn Frost QGM Lady Val Network Clinks
Well done Figen Murray OBE for never giving up. I’ll see you along the way.
Not a fan of the “hero” term. That aside, I’m so proud of Steve Gallant QGM & Own Merit We’ve shown it’s possible to safely house prison leavers. Humane, sensible, pragmatic and affordable. Together we can end prison leaver homelessness. The Guardian theguardian.com/uk-news/articl…
I don't get a lot of time for reading these days but I've recently read two fantastic books by Steve Gallant QGM and Martin Hibbert which were both profoundly moving and truly inspirational. Both of these men were confronted by evil and both were determined that hate wouldn't win.
Thank you @mishalhusain and BBC Radio 4 Today for openly discussing prison leaver homelessness with Own Merit cofounders Darryn Frost QGM & Steve Gallant QGM. Releasing prisoners into homelessness puts the public at risk. This can be resolved. BBC Radio 4
Thanks BBC Breakfast for raising awareness of prison leaver homelessness. Ministry of Justice says prison leavers in stable accommodation are 50% less likely to commit further crime. Surely, to prevent more victims, not a single person should be released homeless?📽️rb.gy/9ehexz
Great to meet you too Gary. And thank you for joining me. You’re an inspiration and a real gentleman. And thank you to David Kendall for inviting me and hosting the event with such professionalism. Let’s all stay in touch!
Since his release from Her Majesty's Prison Five Wells Mr. A completed 15 Parkruns (walking), found a job, which was a bit too taxing, so started full-time volunteering. Today he moved into his own flat and is very happy. We wish him well. Thanks Rachel E from East of England region - Probation service for your support
Back at CTX (Counter Terror Expo) last week, moderating a panel with survivors of terrorism from across the country and farther afield.
