The long goodbye
As I wind down my time at The Willows I am made aware, by people I have helped over the years, how much they appreciate me and for what I have done for them. Its nice and I don’t think I realised what an impact if that is the correct word to describe I have […]
Still trying to make a difference
Found myself going that extra mile to make the Willows work even though it will not help me but will help those who probably don’t deserve it ot appreciate it!
