Testimonials

"I'm a totally different person than before. I wouldn't be able to do it if it wasn't for this group and the great people in it. Thank you all so much!!!"

Service User - LS   

"Before I started coming I had lost all direction in my life and had started to give up but because of all the support that a have been given I am starting to look forward again and it makes me feel great that I am going forward rather than round in circles."

Service User - NT   

"Go Forth gave me structure and a purpose in my life again. I used to be a quiet reserved type person but not so much now. How things changed in the space of a year, I have gone from a recovering addict to full time student – a class rep n all!!"

Service User - TS   

"Before I came to ASC I had a real feeling of worthlessness and my confidence was nearly zero but the group has made my spirits high again and made me do things again like going into town, shops etc. I also can listen to other people's problems without judging anybody and helping them out."

Service User - PJ   

"After coming to ASC I have noticed a marked improvement in my way of thinking. My mental attitude towards my drinking has changed a lot in a very short space of time."

Service User - MM   

"ASC has never shut the door on me as others have done before them. I’m now getting stronger, mentally and physically day to day and week to week so the world is my oyster."

Service User - EG   

"I have been attending Go-Forth Introduction and now Step to Change, and can honestly say I have learned more about myself and others in similar or even different areas of addiction and behaviour and felt really able to open up and talk to my key workers and group leaders and everyone including other service users.

This course has prompted me to think about my positive attributes towards myself and society and life itself"

Service User - MC   

"I have stopped drinking, I’m trying to get that job – I will get it sometime. I would like to get back on the road again; travelling in Europe, go back to Australia. I like helping people and I just want to be happy."

Service User - DA   

"I am trying to better myself, make things better for those around and close to me. I want to further myself (education). I want to reduce Methadone – be self reliant, without having to rely on any medication; try and make up for mistakes I’ve done in the past by doing what I need to do – to make up for it. I want to be involved more in my wee boy’s life and to build more life experience; travel, different cultures and life experience in general."

Service User - MA   

"I am now someone who’s trying to be a better person, saying ‘NO’ to people, trying to stop smoking, reduce Methadone, take responsibility for my daughter – be a better Dad."

Service User - IC   

"Since having completed my course at ASC - Go Forth myself and C are now enrolled on level 6 Social Sciences at Forth Valley college starting full time in Sept 2010"

Service User - DD   

"At first ASC was my 'safety net' and now, a year later it has made my goals / dreams realistic, not 'play play'."

Service User - DD   

"I am hoping to start College soon and have a date for an interview. I am also trying to get a voluntary placement until then with Cancer Research in a charity shop or with the British Red Cross. I like the idea that I could make a difference to others even if it' is a small one."

Service User - CC   

"ASC have never shut the door on me as others have done before them. I'm now getting stronger, mentally and physically day to day and week to week so the world is my oyster."

Service User - EG   

"Both staff and the group were instrumental in guiding me to feel better in myself, I have not felt any higher self esteem in years."

Service User - GB   

"I never thought I would get my confidence back but this group has helped me to overcome that and also to have more self worth. I am now greatly looking forward to the 14 week plan as I know I am ready now to move on."

Service User - SF   

"I was made to feel very welcome and put at ease, as this was a big step towards sobriety. I was welcomed within the group. The people there were in the same predicament as myself."

Service User - RS   

"It has shown me that I have more to offer than I believe and as long as I am wiling, I can achieve anything. So now I believe if I put enough work and effort into it I can achieve my goals. Go Forth has helped me to change these beliefs I had and now I believe in my own capabilities."

Service User - KMcl   

"When we visited Celtic Park, for the presentations of our Health Issues in the Community Certificates I felt very important. I am starting a College course (Intermediate 1 Access to Computing) in August which I wouldn't have thought about if I hadn't attended Go Forth."

Service User - SL   

"I really needed to come to a place like this, I'm able to open up about my mum and I'm learning how to deal with all these emotions I didn't know I had. I am slowly getting my confidence back; I also got a certificate for Mental Health first aid and I am moving towards getting a job which is something I never thought I would do a year ago."

Service User - SS   

"I have an interview at Forth Valley College in May to attend the Professional Food Preparation Course which will give me an NQ. Go Forth has given me the motivation to move on with my life."

Service User - WMcV   

"Thank you for all the help and support you've given me this year (and last). By the time I get back from my trip to London, I have a wonderful job to await me thanks to ASC (special thanks to DF from CVS who I've phoned to thank). Great opportunity for me. Exactly what I need. Will always keep in touch."

Service User - DD   

"Now it's near the end of my course "N" has found me a steady work place which I am very chuffed about so I will get to complete my placement in Go Forth then will be going into employment shortly after the program ends.

Thanks to all at Go Forth."

Service User - DN   

"I know that I certainly would not be where I am now if I had not taken this opportunity. I would most likely be at home doing nothing and staring at the blank walls.

Thank you all, very much, again."

Service User - KAB
