Make content about: Ben threw himself into recovery

After nearly 40 years of using drink and drugs, Ben threw himself into recovery and found hope through art and peer support.

This story

Ben used drink and drugs on and off for nearly 40 years, repeatedly trying abstinence without enough support and returning to substances. Joining Double Impact gave him a safe environment to open up through one-to-one support, groups, and an art project. He has since started a mentoring course and hopes to volunteer or work in a recovery role.

Where you could take it

Join Ben at an art session to hear how creative work and peer support helped him rebuild his life.
