Vanessa Williams from P3 Stratford shared this good news story via a text message conversation with a couple she housed when she first started with P3, after they had been street homeless…

Damien and Clare: Good afternoon Vanessa, how’s things? Just wanted to let you know what’s going on… well, me and Clare moved into our new gaff last week, it’s amazing, it’s beautiful, more than we could hope for. It’s brand new, everything was still in plastic - we’re the first tenants to live in it. Laminate floors all through, a nice modern kitchen and the bathroom is top draw. We love it, we feel like we’re on holiday every day, we just need to put our little finishing touches to it.
We’re so grateful to you for giving us a chance. We were down but we’ve come out the other side. Thank you so much, we’re now booking the wedding for December. You’ll get your invite for the day.
Vanessa: Hello to you both, what a lovely message, this has really made my day. I am overwhelmed with happiness for you both. So what area have you moved to, is it far from where you both were? Helping amazing people such as yourself is all worthwhile. I'm so, so pleased your journey has been positive and words can't describe how proud I am of you two. You both put your faith in me, but it is both of you that should be praised for giving it a go and believing in yourselves. I'm just honoured to have been part of your lives. Keep being amazing and thanks for putting a huge smile on my face. 😊
