More Details

WHO IT’S FOR

The Recovery Course is open to anyone struggling with addiction or compulsive behaviour; drugs, alcohol, social media, pornography, sex, gambling, self-harming.  In fact anything that has a hold on you.  You will be able to defeat that thing you keep returning to.

The course is for people starting a recovery journey, as well as for people who have been in recovery for years, and who would like to take a fresh look at the steps from a Christian perspective.

FORMAT

The evening starts with a meal served at 7:30 (arrive 7:15).  You then have a video presentation that lasts about 25 minutes which is watched with a coffee and pudding in hand.

You then break into groups for a discussion that is lead by one of the team.  You can contribute as much or as little as you wan’t.  It’s a low pressure environment, and you’ll make friends.  The groups are divided male and female.  And all our leaders have experianced addiction.

WORKING AT IT

Anything worthwhile takes a little effort.  But you are valuable and worth the effort.  Each week there is some simple Coursework that you undertake at home.  It helps eyou explore the 12 steps process and make it personal to you.

The Coursework is not compulsory, but like most things, the more you put in the more you get out.  The completed Coursework is private and for your benefit entirely, nobody gets to see it.

Recovery Stories

Finally

OUR LAST COURSE

” It felt completely safe to be vulnerable. Zero judgement. “

” It helped in recognising aspects of why I had/have the addiction from my past. “

WHO’S BEHIND THIS

The course runs in a number of locations.  All courses run to the same format and are designed by The Recovery Course, which is a national charity run by people who have seen thier lives almost wrecked by addiction.  But they survived and they want you to survive too.
