Welcome to the Ategi People Newsletter
Hi there ,
Welcome to The Ategi People newsletter! We wanted to create a newsletter that's especially for the people we support and our Shared Lives carers.
Just so you know, we'll also be sending out a quarterly newsletter that gives you a broader overview of Ategi and what the organisation is up to called the "Ategi Perspective" and there's also a dedicated newsletter just for Shared Lives carers, called, the "Shared Lives carer Bulletin".

Announcing the first winner of the Ategi Wellbeing Fund!
Kyeron has been awarded a sum of money to buy himself a shed to do his woodwork come rain or shine.
The Ategi Wellbeing Fund was created to help people Ategi support to explore their interests, try something new or not miss out on opportunities and generally support their wellbeing.
The Ategi Wellbeing Fund is open to all the people Ategi support.
Join us at the Ategi Summer picnic!
Bring your own lunch and we'll supply the cakes!
