Thinking about participating in any festivities this Halloween? Don't forget to make the necessary preparations to stay as safe as you can.

We've put together some of our top tips for a scare-free Halloween! 🎃

🗓️ Plan ahead: Know where you’re going and how you’re getting home safely.
🤝 Stick together: Go out with friends you trust and look out for each other.
⏱️ Set your own pace: Decide what feels right for you before the night starts and stay in control by avoiding ‘rounds’.
💧 Stay hydrated: Alternate drinks with water to stay hydrated, especially if you’re dancing the night away.
⚠️ Drink safety: Don’t accept a drink unless you have seen it being prepared and don’t leave drinks unattended.
🏠 Spiking: If you think you have been spiked, stay with a trusted friend and go to a safe place.

Q: How do we know the voices of people who access the service are heard and valued?

We believe that people with lived experience should be at the heart of what we do. Our approach is rooted in collaboration, involving people who access our service, not just in their recovery but in shaping how the service itself is delivered. We involve peer mentors and volunteers, many of whom have recovered from addiction themselves.

Our aim is to be responsive to the needs of those that use our services. We believe this is a critical component within the facilitation of inclusive and high-quality recovery services.

💬 “The support has been good, before I thought I would be in a dark hole but i think there has been visible progress to where I am now and I don’t think I would of made any changes at all if i hadn't of seen Dani.
