Recovery Hub and Community Network
The Recovery Hub and Community Network is based at Pitt Lane in Lerwick, and they provide support to anyone affected by drug or alcohol issues.
Support is provided for anyone concerned about their own, or someone else’s, alcohol or drug use. The Hub’s focus is on giving people the opportunity to work together, with each other and with support services, to minimise the harm caused by drug and alcohol use. The Hub’s aim is to give people the tools they need, supported by other agencies and the community’s own network, to minimise the harm they may be facing, and to get the right help at the right time.
Services they provide:
- Drop in informal support
- One to one support
- Family Support Groups – peer support
- Recovery Groups
- Community involvement activities
To contact the Hub, call 01595 744402 or email recoveryhub@shetland.gov.uk
It is important that we all come together to recognise the stigma and harm which is all too often experienced by people who use alcohol or other drugs. Everyone has strengths and gifts which can be supported and built on to benefit the whole community.
