When Tariq (name changed) felt like life had come to a standstill, he turned to a Wellbeing Coach for help.

Through journaling, small weekly goals, and gentle coaching, he rebuilt his confidence, rediscovered his love for music, and even secured a new job. 🎶✨

Sometimes progress starts with one small act of courage.

For David (name changed), recovery began with one brave conversation. 🌱

After years of alcohol dependency and isolation, he worked with a Health and Wellbeing Coach to rebuild confidence, plan for detox, and reconnect with his family. Today, he’s sober, hopeful, and walking his dog every morning — proof that change truly is possible.

Supporting the Supporters 💙

Donna didn’t realise she was a carer. She just thought she was doing what had to be done. But with help from her social prescriber, she discovered the financial and emotional support available to people like her—quiet heroes behind the scenes.

Now better supported and less alone, Donna can focus on both her husband’s needs and her own. Read her story:

Jamie-Lee’s story highlights the importance of holistic support for survivors of domestic abuse, especially single mothers balancing childcare, housing, and health challenges. Our Early Help service played a crucial role — not only connecting her to practical resources but offering encouragement that gave her the strength to keep going.

🎉 And that’s a wrap!

Over the past week, we’ve taken you behind the scenes of our year — from buses full of health checks 🚌 to concert halls packed with people we’ve supported 🎶, and everything in between.

None of this would have been possible without our brilliant staff, our partners, and of course, the communities of Birmingham and Solihull who inspire us every single day. 💙

We’ve crunched the numbers, shared the stories, and celebrated the wins — but the heart of it all is simple: people helping people.

🙏 Thank you for being part of the Gateway journey. Same time next year? 😉

“Weight Management"

🛒 Almost half of the 709 people referred to our weight management programme lost the equivalent of five bags of sugar each. That’s a lot of sweet success!

It’s not just about the scales — it’s about confidence, health, and proving to yourself that change is possible. 👏

⛽ We issued 200+ fuel bank vouchers this year — that’s a lot of kettles boiled, radiators warmed, and hot baths run.

Because let’s face it: no one makes good decisions when they’re freezing. We’re proud to have kept homes warm and spirits a little higher during some of the coldest months. 💙

Doing It All—and Now, Not Alone 👨‍👩‍👦

Peter took in his grandson. He’s caring for his wife. He’s dealing with past trauma. And for a while, he was doing it all without help. But one appointment changed that. With the right support, he now has school uniforms, essential kitchen items, and—perhaps most importantly—someone in his corner.

🚌 Remember that cheeky hint yesterday about something “bigger than a bus”?
Well, here it is… not just one bus, but FIVE!

This year, our team delivered over 250 lifestyle checks — blood pressure, heart rate, BMI, the works. That’s enough to fill five double-decker buses with people who’ve had a health MOT with us. 🩺💪

Sometimes the biggest impacts start with the smallest steps — one check at a time.

👀 Tomorrow we’ll tell you about the fuel that kept people warm this year… literally.
