When asked about expectations before coming to PACTNE people explained: "I was excited but nervous, but everybody made me feel welcome "When we first moved in I was expecting to only be there for a couple of weeks and I was expecting very basic accommodation with people who don’t genuinely care" "it felt like home as soon as we moved in with the support of staff and colleagues" "to become a family, have our own home and space. Then to move on in life to have a forever home and a strong family" "I wasn't expecting anything but I can't explain with words how much I benefitted from my time there" |
When asked whether expectations were met people responded: "staff were always there when I needed them and the accommodation was excellent" "PACT went way above my expectations, I’ve suffered with PTSD from my time in the forces since 1995, this has seen me homeless and in emergency accommodation many times and PACT is by far the best place I’ve ever stayed. It really is a wonderful place" "Yes, I’ve enjoyed my stay and the support" "Yes, I enjoyed my stay here, it taught me to maintain my home, be independent and get ready to move into a house" "my expectations were fully met" "the best part of my stay was the staff" |
