Simon Voices is a Newsletter produced by users of Simon services for service users nationally. Simon Involvement and Action group has been meeting for 11 years. We meet once a month in Dublin and our members come from Simon Communities from around the country.
The group is about clients meeting to share information about how they have a say in their local Simon Communities and what is happening from around the country. One of our members attends meetings in the EU and reports back on what is happening in homelessness around Europe. We highlight issues about homelessness and come up with new ideas every time we meet.
Our work is important and brings clients from different Simon Communities together. This year the Simon Community are planning:
Members of our group say that that coming to the meetings, gives them satisfaction and confidence; they have a good laugh; they come together as friends and there is support and encouragement; it is a day out from your normal routine.
