One resident shared: “This is the first time I’ve felt fully accepted and supported, not just around my disability, but in being my authentic self.
“Celebrating Pride at Dearnevale has been an amazing experience. I’ve loved learning about the meaning and being part of the celebrations. I played a big role in planning the event, so it’s great to see everything come together.”
