Welcome to Recovery Church
Honest Truth Event packed out
On 20th March 2024 we held a big event at Newcastle Cathedral. It was a chance for civic, business and third sector leaders to hear the stories and experiences of many people who have addictions, especially around the stigma of addiction and the impact of how they have been engaged with on their recovery and mental health. Over 100 people turned out and was well received. New opportunities to speak to those with power and influence in this area have now begun to open up. Watch this space for developments.
We created a song to help communicate some of our experiences. We worked with Sean Cooney from the folk trio, The Young 'Uns to write the lyrics then he went away and recorded it to a tune. The song and video will appear here soon.
