Volunteers are at the heart of everything we do at The 180 Project.

From mentoring men in prison, supporting sessions in the community, sharing lived experience, offering encouragement when it’s needed most, or simply being a consistent and trusted presence, our volunteers help create the relationships that make change possible.

This , we want to say a heartfelt thank you to every person who gives their time, energy and compassion to support our work.

Many of the people who volunteer with us have walked their own difficult paths. They know what it feels like to struggle, to start again, and to need someone who believes in you. Their willingness to use those experiences to help others is one of the most powerful things we witness.

At The 180 Project, we often talk about the importance of community. Our volunteers are a huge part of that community. They help create environments where people feel safe, valued, challenged and supported to become the best version of themselves.

Over the last year, our volunteers have supported men in prison, welcomed prison leavers into the community, mentored young people, helped deliver sessions, organised events and played an essential role in helping people build healthier, more hopeful futures.

To every volunteer past and present: thank you. Your contribution matters more than you probably realise.

Together, we’re not just changing lives, we’re helping people believe that change is possible.

Today we had the opportunity to celebrate and thank you all!!

📣 Launch of Blackburn Family Support Group 📣

We know that many people need somewhere safe to go, talk, and feel supported when a loved one is struggling with addiction.

We’re launching a new Family Support Group for Blackburn... a welcoming space for families and close friends to connect, share experiences, and access support together. The group will be facilitated by a qualified and experienced counsellor, providing compassionate guidance and support in a safe and confidential environment.

Our first session takes place at 6pm Wednesday 20th May, at St Lukes Community Centre, Bank Top, Blackburn.

To find out more, and to arrange to come down, please call:

International Women’s Day the 180 way. 💪

An amazing group of women and young ladies came together today to celebrate each other in movement! Strong, supportive, and lifting each other up. There was so much courage in the room.

At The 180 Project we see every day the strength it takes for women to rebuild their lives and keep moving forward.

Today was about celebrating that strength ❤️

This is what innovative rehabilitation looks like. 💪❤️

Every week, our 180 Community Workout brings together people who — not long ago — might never have shared the same space.

👉 Families Training together alongside each other. Rebuilding relationships — one workout, one conversation, one act of trust at a time.

👉 Serving prison officers work out with men recently released from prison, breaking down barriers and building understanding through shared effort.

👉 Recovery Coordinators from PPG train alongside men and women in recovery.

👉 Graduates of The 180 Project return with family members, staying connected to the community that supported their change.

It’s a unique and innovative approach to rehabilitation — one that uses the power of exercise and community to drive long-term transformation.

Because regular movement doesn’t just improve physical health — it builds mental resilience, self-belief, and a sense of belonging that can change the trajectory of a life.

This is rehabilitation, recovery, and reconnection in action.

No hierarchy. No judgement. Just people choosing to be better — together.

When community becomes the catalyst, change doesn’t just happen inside prison walls — it spreads far beyond them.

September is Recovery Month 💜

Today we’re celebrating the strength, resilience, and community that recovery is all about. 💪✨

Nothing shows it better than this incredible group who’ve just pushed through a tough workout together. Supporting one another every step of the way.

Recovery isn’t a solo journey. It’s built on connection, encouragement, and the belief that change is always possible… One rep, one step, one day at a time.

Together, we walk. Together, we remember. Together, we hope.

🌟 Walk for Hope 🌟

Today we united with our delivery partners and local residents, and walked together in remembrance of the lives lost to su***de, in support of those who struggle, and in hope for a future where no one walks alone. 💛

Every step we took was a tribute to a life, a message that says, “You are not alone.”
