WHY OUR WORK MATTERS

‘Joining GCWA was one of the best things I did when our grandkids came to live with me. From the moment I arrived they welcomed me with open arms.  They not only provided support and friendship to me but they have been a great support for my grandkids. It has given us a community and friends and people who understand what we are going through’
