Keith’s Story – Sparks Attendee

Keith has been attending our Sparks project at Door 84 since 2022. He’s made many new friends and regularly joins in with our
creative sessions – but his favourite by far is the inclusive disco.

Keith brings energy, laughter, and fun wherever he goes, and here he shares what Door 84 means to him.

“When I was at school I used a walking frame, people kept away from me and I felt that they treated me different.

I know that I am different but so is everyone here, these are my people, this is my community. I feel comfortable at Door 84.

I enjoy coming, and dancing at the disco, and going on trips. I love to talk to people, it makes me happy and there are always
lots of friends that I can chat to whilst I’m here.”

For Keith, Door 84 is a place where he feels accepted, included, and free to be himself.
