🟠 Farewell to the Orange Room 🟠
(Yes, that Orange Room. The one with the bright lighting and that one creaky chair in a teeny tiny little space.)
They say if these walls could talk, they’d probably ask for a cup of tea and then tell you stories of laughter, tears, breakthroughs, breakdowns, and all the glorious messiness that is recovery. And now, after years of loyal service, the Orange Room is officially… retired.
But don’t be sad. This isn’t a funeral.
It’s a metamorphosis.
Here at Sefton Park, we know that change is not only inevitable — it’s vital. Whether it’s a person, a room, a belief, or a way of coping, the moment we stop evolving is the moment we stop living.
So yes, the Orange Room is no longer in use.
But in true Sefton fashion, we’re not erasing it — we’re reimagining it.
Just as our clients step into the unknown and find strength in discomfort, we’re turning this space into something new. A room with a new purpose. A different identity. Still a part of the whole — just like every part of ourselves that’s been reshaped along the way.
In recovery, we say goodbye to things that no longer serve us. Habits, fears, narratives — even orange walls. We clear space not because the past was bad, but because we’re making room for something better.
So here’s to the Orange Room.
You did your job. You held space. You witnessed change.
And to everyone walking their own path of recovery — remember:
It’s okay to close a door, even if you loved what was behind it.
Sometimes, the best version of you is waiting in a room you haven’t built yet.
