"Going on a journey to rehab"

About: Inclusion Visions Thurrock (Drug & Alcohol Recovery Service)

(as a service user),

I think the service is excellent but it is really under used. We need more public awareness about this being open to anyone. I lost a lot of people through Covid and my partner of 30 years. As a result i turned to drink even more than i had already. I cared for a lot of people and in doing so forgot to look after my own health. Lee is my current keyworker. I dont think he realises how much i appreciate what he has done for me. I have his full support and as a result he has helped refer me to Rehab. I know this will be achance of a lifetime and Lee is pushing me to go through this and i know with his help this is the right thing to do. All the staff are amaxing. They are non judgemental and all friendly from reception to keyworkers and if course the volunteers, one of whom is named Ryan and he is an asset to the service running the cafe. This has been my journey and i hope it continues and i will be better off coming through all this with everyone around me.

Hi millimetertg88

Your feedback is so valuable, thank you for taking the time to let us know about your experience with Visions.

Sharing how covid has affected you, and those close to you is a brave thing to do, and will not doubt help other people who read this. I am really pleased that you were able to reach out for support, and are now on your way to rehab which will hopefully give you the tools to achieve your goals.

I will be sure to share your feedback with Lee, and Ryan. Your motivation and courage really is inspiring, keep going with your journey!

All the best for the future,

Levi
