Sophie’s Story
“Throughout my life, I have attended many hospital appointments, and so far, I have had four operations. I have struggled to find people to talk to who know what I am going through and how to help. This can cause me to feel isolated, as I don’t know whether other people feel the same as I do, however with CLAPA I know that there is always someone to talk to who has been through what I have.”
