A Heartfelt Thank You in Paint: Steve Lock's Gift to BPRCVS, The Hub, and Gannow Community Centre

​At BPRCVS, we are constantly inspired by the resilience and creativity of the people we support. One such inspiring individual is Steve Lock, a resident of Healthier Heroes outreach. Steve recently presented us, along with The Hub and GCC, with a remarkable painting he created as a heartfelt thank you for the help and support we've provided throughout his recovery journey.

Steve’s journey with us has been one of transformation and personal growth. Initially, he planned to paint his artwork as a mural on a wall at GCC, but he decided to bring his vision to life on a canvas instead. This thoughtful choice makes the painting more movable, allowing it to be displayed and appreciated in various settings.
​
Steve’s painting is not just a beautiful piece of art; it’s a powerful symbol of his journey toward independence and self-expression. While he is enjoying being in his own environment and embracing his independence, Steve knows that the support network of BPRCVS, our dedicated staff, and volunteers will always be there for him whenever he needs us.

We cannot describe just how fantastic this painting is! It embodies the positive steps he continues to take in his life. It's a vivid reminder of the impact that support, community, and volunteering can have on someone's journey.

Steve's story is a testament to the power of community and support.

We are honored to have played a role in his journey and are thrilled to see him thriving in his newfound independence. His painting will serve as a lasting reminder of the importance of the work we do and the incredible people we are fortunate enough to meet along the way.
At BPRCVS, we are committed to supporting individuals like Steve as they navigate their paths to recovery and independence. Stories like his inspire us to continue our mission, providing help and support where it’s needed most.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to Steve for this beautiful gift and look forward to continuing this journey with him. To everyone involved in supporting Steve—our staff, volunteers, and partner organisations—thank you for your dedication and compassion.
