Hi, I’m Max and I live in De Paul House. Having a full flat to myself in the project gives me my own space and I have the option to come to communal areas if I want to, so it is a good balance.

I enjoy going on activities like paintballing and go-karting. I also like meeting up with my keyworker for key sessions. I am focused on getting my own tenancy and spend time with the staff to achieve my goals and outcomes to work towards my move on journey.

I am very independent but ask for help when I need it with things like budgeting and harm reduction.

Are you ready to make a real difference to me and people like me?
