Step One’s year in review

2021 to 2022

Like most charities, 2021 has not been an easy year for Step One. But it has been one where we have proved our resilience, and realised the importance of sticking together as a community.
In this video, we’ve put together just about everything that has happened over the past year at Step One. Buckle up – it’s been a busy one!

Thank you!

The team at Step One would like to say a big THANK YOU to our community for all the support you have given us throughout 2021. It has been so lovely for us to know we have all worked through this together. We have learnt a lot and appreciate everything that you have all done for our service users and staff.

THANK YOU!

Here’s to 2022!

We hope that after another challenging yet extraordinary year, we can continue to build our community to be bigger and greater than ever before!
