Own Merit's success relies on the dedication of its residents, who achieve their goals through their own merit.
The programme offers a supportive environment where residents are offered the chance to build a home and develop life skills ranging from sharing cleaning responsibilities to engaging in wellness activities such as weekly Parkruns.
Building new connections, engaging with the community, and reconnecting with loved ones is part of Own Merit's ethos.
"The Own Merit programme has provided me with unconditional support regardless of my history, a place where I can be comfortable and call home, allowing me to better myself from a life of crime and disappointment"
- Ben H.
