Here’s what some of the men have to say:
“Being part of the Great Escape is about teamwork. Working together to make a difference. Its more than a group it’s a sense of belonging”
“I was feeling depressed. I heard about the Great Escape and thought I would see what it was like. Coming here each week gives me something to look forward to and keeps me busy.”
If this sounds like something you would like to be part of, we look forward to welcoming you.
