  26. impact “Today Liam completed a week of work experience at Unipres. I have not witnessed this sparkle in him for such a long time. I've listened, intently each evening, to the day’s news and loved it almost as much as my son. His self-esteem and just the way his outlook has changed, is astounding. His self-confidence has rocketed! … Thank you for helping me to allow my son to grow. For giving him these opportunities and believing in him. I am in awe of the changes I see before me.”
