Towards Recovery offers a Recovery Cafe in Henley-on-Thames, as well as an online Recovery Cafe, where people recovering from addiction can get support and encouragement. It aims to help people connect with others, re-connect with themselves and the world around them, and make sustainable changes to create a life of their own choosing.
Towards Recovery shows that people in recovery are community assets who can positively contribute to the wellbeing of those around them. The recovery community was founded in 2012 by Huseyin Djemil, who is in long-term recovery from an addiction to Class A drugs.
You can see that we have created a variety of elements on the Towards Recovery Community pages of this website that which include a 2015 film of Huseyin talking about Towards Recovery; two sections which include films of Huseyin describing Towards Recovery during our first interview; a post focused on the role of community from Huseyin’s Lent Blog; links to five Journeys Podcasts that Huseyin developed; a slideshow of photographs; reflections from community members, and a YouTube playlist of nine Towards Recovery films.
We hope you enjoy working around these page and we congratulate Huseyin and fellow community members for developing Towards Recovery to where it is today. You’ll be hearing more about what’s happening at Towards Recovery in future posts to this website.
