STAR - Steps To Active Recovery

star - steps to active recovery

There are many organisations across the UK doing great things to help people in addiction. But they’re not always working together. And often, a great initiative runs out of steam and disappears because its organisers are struggling to cope with all the demands and pressures that are being put upon them. This is where STAR comes in. With a personal story of recovery from addiction, and six years of experience in helping to run almost 20 Recovery courses at local churches, STAR founder-director Emma Heath has spotted a growing problem. And she’s become more and more determined to do something about it. > “I see so many great things starting up around the UK. But too often they > disappear because they’re not sustainable. Churches are either not getting the > support and training they need, or they’re not collaborating with other > services and organisations in their local area, or they’re simply overwhelmed > by the need on their doorstep. People can’t work in silos – especially in the > field of addiction and recovery. It’s all too hard.” STAR is about changing the culture that exists around addiction services. Across the UK, we want to have volunteer-led Recovery hubs that are brilliantly run by expertly-trained personnel who are getting all the advice and support they need to keep going. In the future, people affected by addiction will choose to go to a STAR-approved venue because of its reputation for being safe and trustworthy. It’ll be a place where lives are being changed. Every hour. Every day.”
