“Stephen Blackman has been with DARE for 12 years, living at Macquarie Rd. After enduring months of pain, he finally underwent hip surgery and is now on the road to recovery. His greatest joy? Returning to lawn care—a task he always loved. With support from his Key Worker, Chris Roorda, Stephen stayed engaged during recovery and has now also rekindled his passion for building Lego planes. His perseverance and determination, alongside the unwavering support of the DARE team, highlight the strong sense of community and care that makes DARE truly special.”
