Our next service supports 3 men who all have different lifestyles and interests. One of the guys is very independent loves going to the gym and exercising, he is also loves attending CrossFit sessions! Another individual that we support is really into his music, gaming, movies and exploring the local towns and cities nearby and the last gent we support is a huge foodie and going on adventure holidays every year which has involved rock climbing, abseiling, cycling and horse riding!
