The evolution of our 16 year Citizen Advocacy Partnership… Barbara and Nan!
Looking back over time, what started out as some voluntary work in my spare time as a busy Mum has become something i am passionate about, event resulting in my working at Dunfermline Advocacy.
The value of a long term partnership to someone vulnerable is invaluable: Nan knows she has someone who will speak up for her, whom she trusts, and who will always be there for her. I have learned to have more patience and I have gained not just a great friend, but another family member.
Definitely #friendshipchanginglives
