From Pocket Money to NYC

New York - Success Story

In 2023, a young person spoke about wanting to go abroad and her dream destination was to go to New York. After many conversations, plans were put in place to support the young person to achieve this dream.

Through support with saving plans, everyone pulled together with the young person to help her save her spending money, whilst we were able to book the holiday.

This young person had never never left the country before and she did amazing on the entire journey, managing well with all the travelling and loved every minute of it.

When in New York she spoke of how she would love to live here but would miss her family and the care team because of everything they have and continue to do with her.

She was able to experience going on a boat for the first time to see the Statue of Liberty. She learnt all about Ground Zero and got to try real New York Pizza!

She had the most amazing experience and we are so proud to have been a part of this with her, with memories that will last a lifetime.
