This year, the result was crystal clear. Please join me in congratulating Ashridge_Mack – HAVOCA’s Member of the Year!
From the warmth of their support to the steady encouragement they offer across the forum, Ashridge_Mack has been a standout presence throughout the year. The votes reflected exactly what so many of us already know: their contributions make a genuine difference.

Well deserved – and congratulations once again!

Healing is hard
Healers are heroes
Free Butterfly - I want to feel beautiful. I want to feel free.
Previously broken but whole. I don't want to call myself broken anymore.
When I share, and nobody responds or shows me they read what I wrote, I feel hurt and alone...

Go You Ashridge_Mack ....Richly deserved.
Your support has been considerable and to many folk here not just this year but for many years. But clearly especially this last year your care and empathy,, encouragement and quiet wisdom acknowledged by those who have received all of the above and others who have observed perhaps from a distance.
Thank you for ALL that you are and ALL that you have freely given here.

Re: RESULTS - Member of the Year 2025 - RESULTS
Wow. Golly gosh, how amazing and out of the blue and weird and warm-feeling-in-my-tummy making...
Well, and thank you all so much! It's lovely to feel appreciated, though my childhood didn't exactly help with making it easy to take such feelings on lol - but I doubt I'm alone there. Which actually makes the whole thing more special, this appreciation from people (perhaps) so often denied it themselves in the past.
And so I want to say it's all of you / us, really, who deserve this appreciation for being special, and for making this place the oasis of refuge, community, safety and sharing it is (well, for me, anyway)! And, of course, the magical Jamie, who should obviously get Organiser of the Year every year without fail, for actually allowing us all to be here and share this.
So, nice to be singled out and I do very much appreciate it
, but it's imho an appreciation we're all part of, and that belongs to all of us and we all deserve.
Okay, so yeah, maybe I'm being a bit What - me?-ish about it, but I do genuinely believe it whatever!

Re: RESULTS - Member of the Year 2025 - RESULTS
Congratulations AM, well deserved. When I joined this forum about 10 years ago, your replies and posts were very insightful, supportive and helpful.
You've walked your own difficult journey here over the last 10 years. And shared your wisdom with us.
You've given lots of support to many and your posts can show a different perspective and allow many of us to process things differently.
I know for me your knowledge on inner child work has helped me to look at myself differently and move forward with less shame.
So thank you for your wisdom, empathy and support to the Havoca community X
