The history behind the conception of the new Doorway Community Blog is that I have recently begun to understand the potential behind social networking websites such as Facebook and Twitter. Blogs and Tweets are proving to be a powerful means of getting personal stories out into the public domain.

Doorway supports over 270 individuals (‘guests’) a year in the open access drop-in sessions. Every single one of those individuals has a life, a history and a reason for needing our service.

Doorway is hoping to provide an opportunity for our guests to document their everyday lives by giving them a voice.

I truly hope that the wider audience accessing the blog is educated, inspired and motivated by the posts.
