Tony

Support Team Leader

I originally thought I would be a world class football player but after my first game and scoring three home goals that dream went out the window. My life then took a sideways path which led to a life of crime and addiction. After many attempts of trying to overcome this through prison, rehab and going to Church with my dear Nan, I finally found peace following rehab in 2008 with a different style of therapy which helped me put my life back together. Since then I had a passion for supporting others but first trained to become a chef then in later years I helped those in rehab learn to cook, and in 2018 I joined the Edge family. I love the passion here and how everyone is accepted as they are, staff, volunteers, residents. It wasn’t until 2022 I completed the Alpha course and really understood what my Nan had been saying to me over 25 years ago about faith. Since then I have grown in my faith and still learning every day.
