Feedback from Yellow Submarine Holidays
”It is very useful, at last someone providing holidays for people with special needs. Katy loves choosing which holiday she would like to go on. The hols also make her feel independent, and build her confidence so that she can cope away from home.” Ellen Cocking, mother of Katy “I’m very interested in your plan to set up something relating to holidays. This is a criminally overlooked and much needed area of work in the field of learning disabilities.” Simon Tyler, Chief Executive of Mencap Andover “Jimmy Smith always comes back more positive from your holidays and much more independent. Before he went away with you he could not even make a sandwich. Now he goes to the fridge and is able to prepare a meal for himself. Before he could never do that. Now he has really come out of himself and as a result needs less support. You are doing a really wonderful job!” Lucia Wells, care worker for Jimmy Smith “I find the holidays have given him more confidence and made him more positive. They have done the world of good for him going on group holidays with the right support so he doesn’t need to look over his shoulder the whole time. For me the rest is great - I’m really confident about him with you- it’s like home from home and that allows me to relax.” Pam Ryan, mother of Dean “I just meant to say a BIG BIG thank you for having me for all your holidays. If not for the holidays I will never have the chance to stay in a lighthouse, in a 1873 house!, in a house that looks like a castle. It’s just so amazing. Your holidays are one of a kind and I believe in what you do and hope you continue doing what you do.” Roslinah Rokhim, a volunteer who has helped on four of our respite breaks Video and photo feedback |
