This
is a new aftercare support group that has been set up and run by users
themselves and is held every Wednesday evening 5pm – 8pm at
East Croydon United Reform Church.
The main criteria to attend the group is that you must not be intoxicated
or under the influence of any non-prescribed drugs.
It was set up in response to views expressed by services users about
the lack of aftercare provision in Croydon and one of the needs identified
was for peer led support.
Refreshments are provided and the kind of things planned for the future
include: social activities, advice on training/education/employment,
drama workshops, advice on relapse prevention – everyone has
equal input and given the chance to chair the group.
If anyone is interested in attending, you can just turn up or call
a PLUG member on 07516935932 or 07516935933 for more details.
Day: Wednesday evenings
Time: 5pm – 8pm
Venue: East Croydon United Reform Church.
