We want to open a Recovery Coffee Shop which will train up people who have recently entered recovery to become baristas and provide a route back into employment, while offering support to people wanting to learn about recovery from addiction.

Beneficiaries
Situation
We help anyone who is seeking to recover from a variety of addictions, such as to drugs, alcohol, gambling, co-dependent relationships, sex, and with underlying mental health issues. Addiction causes family breakdown, problems or loss of work and income, deteriorating mental and physical health, involvement in crime and even death.
Solution
Our Recovery Coffee Shop will provide a friendly, safe and sober space for people to be introduced to how to recover from addiction from our volunteers with lived experience of recovery. We will provide the latest up to date information about how to connect into recovery treatment and other services and into our supportive peer community. We will train up people recently entered into recovery to become baristas and offer them future employment opportunities to rebuild their lives.
