"I feel that I'm part of a team... I don't feel so excluded" - Stephen
Stephen didn't have heating, hot water or a flushing toilet for two years. He met Diane from Age UK Oxfordshire when he was hospitalised after having a heart attack, and the two of them have been working together to improve his living situation. Now, he has access to a flushing toilet, his heating is being fixed, and he's volunteering at a local community cafe.
"Now it just feels that there's a future there to be had."
