The importance of giving back

The importance of giving back in recovery brings with it the opportunity to help and guide another person, whilst helping yourself in the process. An example of this would be our shop floor role. Clients that have been through treatment here can get a taster of what it's like to volunteer in this environment and learn to support and guide those who are at the beginning of their recovery journey. Sometimes for a person who has just entered treatment, feeling overwhelmed and daunted by the prospect of group and one to one therapy, a reassuring chat with a shop floor person can help alleviate those fears.
