Our Members

Lyndsey

Hello, my name is Lyndsey and I'm a member of Key to Joy.  I was only in my 30's when I was diagnosed with autism.  I've struggled with my mental health for most of my life.  I live in Gosport and I try to attend three days a week.

Attending has been really good and I've found out that I really love archery.  I am very happy because I have passed the Archery Beginners Course.

I've been coming to Key to Joy as often as possible for quite a while now and I really enjoy it and have fun.  It is like having extra members of my family.

Jake

Hi, my name is Jake.

I have only recently started attending.

I really like archery and playing table tennis.

I like meeting other people my own age.

It is much better than just staying home.

Ghada

I'm Ghada and I've been coming to Key to Joy for several months.  I like meeting others who are a bit like me.  We can join in together.

I enjoy helping the team. I often help setting up and clearing away when we cook or do other stuff.

I am getting better at painting and drawing.

I'm glad I can come to Key to Joy

Michael

I'm Michael and I'm one of the older members of Key to Joy.

I like meeting and chatting with other members.

I am keen to help with the garden.

I've tried archery but I like the dart archery best.

I help setting up the gardening sessions and putting up the gazebos when we need them.
