Parkash

My name is Parkash I am over 80 years old and live in Beeston. Both my children live abroad so I have no immediate family here. I felt so isolated, struggling to cope, unable to get out. Then Yasmin from Health for All came into my life. I shared my worries and concerns and she arranged the Access Bus, a weekly Yoga session and a social worker visit. She discussed the option of sheltered housing and helped me get extra pension benefit. That will pay for transport to attend social activities without worrying about the expense. I told Yasmin “You are the first person to come in to my home to help me; I didn’t even know that someone could help me. You have helped me overcome my sight and hearing problems. You’ve made me aware of what is going on in the community. I had asked God to help me and he sent you. Thankyou.
