Taastamise propageerimise projekt

LAAS has been busy over the last few months working along with the Alcohol and Drug Partnership, Reach Advocacy and the Scottish Recovery Consortium to establish advocacy provisions for people in Argyll and Bute who are seeking assistance with recovery.

We received funding from the ADP and Bank of Scotland Foundation to provide 3 part time peer advocates in Bute, Helensburgh and Kintyre. Tervitame neid meeskonda:

Jamie shared his story with us:

Minu nimi on Jamie Campbell. Olen suurema osa oma elust elanud Butel ja armastan saareelu. Minu kired on kõndimine ja golf. Võtsin golfi ette 4 aastaid tagasi, kui üritasin alkoholisõltuvusest taastuda. Kui paranemiseni jõudsin, Hakkasin väga kirglikult aitama teisi nende sõltuvustes. Osalesin kohalikus vastastikuse abi rühmas sõltlastega inimestele ja selle kaudu pakuti mind koolitusvõimaluseks Recovery Advocacy Award'is. This was through Reach Advocacy, in partnership with Lomond and Argyll Advocacy Service (LAAS).
I completed my award by August 2020 and applied for a job on the Recovery Advocacy Project within LAAS. I was delighted to secure the position and started working part time in November 2020 as a Recovery Advocacy Project Worker on the Isle of Bute.
I am confident that my lived experience along with my passion for helping people and my positivity for recovery will hold me in good stead for assisting others. I have a good knowledge of addiction services on the island and I am building my knowledge and connections with these services.
