I have been engaged with Stars for 3 months now. I am a recovering alcoholic, which is not an easy journey. My key worker, Jenni, is an extraordinary person who has been able to make me see my addiction in a different light, and allow me to see light at the end of the tunnel.
Even during a relapse, she and Stars were patient, understanding and empathetic. This is a service run by people who genuinely understand, and genuinely care about the outcomes of the people they meet.
From the same building the service also hosts a group called Betterway, whose staff all are recovering from addiction, so they have actual lived experience. This has also been important to me as I recover, and the connections that I have made and am making there are now invaluable to me.
I would recommend both Stars and Better way to everybody, and I am very grateful to have had their services in the last few months.
