Chloe's Story - Taking Positive Steps Towards Independence
Chloe’s journey into volunteering is a great example of how the right support and encouragement can help someone take positive steps forward.

Support to grow in confidence
Help to learn new skills
Encouragement to work towards the life they want
With her sights set on the future, Chloe dreams of her own home, a paid job, and more independence and choice in her life. Knowing her love of clothes and fashion, the team at Cae Deri helped her find a volunteering job at a local charity shop, and it’s been the perfect fit.
Chloe now volunteers twice a week, helping tidy the shop floor, organise clothes, and tag items for sale. She’s thrown herself into it with real enthusiasm, often wishing she could stay longer when it’s time to go. The routine has done wonders for her wellbeing, confidence, and sense of purpose.
While Chloe has had great support, the credit really belongs to her as her determination and courage have driven this progress. Everyone at Cae Deri couldn’t be prouder and can’t wait to see what she achieves next.
Chloe’s story is a lovely reminder of what’s possible with the right support: confidence, independence, and a brighter future.
