💙 Halfway Through Our Recovery Group Pilot 💙
Tonight marks the halfway point of our first AcuMinds Recovery Group six-week pilot, and we wanted to take a moment to reflect.
To every single person who found the courage to walk through our doors… thank you.
Taking that first step is often the hardest part of any recovery journey. It takes strength, courage and determination to say, “I want things to be different.” We are incredibly proud of every person who has chosen to take that step.
Over the past three weeks, we’ve seen honesty, openness, support and encouragement grow within the group. Watching people feel safe enough to share their experiences and support one another has been truly inspiring. Recovery isn’t always a straight line, but every positive choice, every conversation and every session attended is a step forward.
We want to congratulate everyone taking part. You should be proud of how far you’ve already come, and we hope you recognise the progress you’re making, one week at a time.
This pilot has reminded us why community matters. Nobody should have to face recovery alone.
Although this is currently an initial six-week pilot programme, our hope is to continue running these groups on a regular basis so we can support even more people within our community.
If you, or someone you know, would be interested in joining our next Recovery Group, please get in touch with AcuMinds or Darwen Community Helpers. We’ll happily add you to our waiting list and keep you updated about future groups.
Together, we can continue creating a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space where people are encouraged to take those first steps towards a healthier future.
💙 One step at a time. One week at a time. Together.
