Open Door

LIVING ROOM CARDIFF

 

We are a community based recovery centre that has an “all addictions” approach (e.g. gambling, alcohol, sex, drugs, eating disorder), and welcomes anyone who needs support taking that first step towards recovery or wanting to maintain their ongoing recovery. We also welcome and provide advice and support for family members, partners and friends who have been affected by these addictions. All information that you disclose to us will be treated in the strictest confidence.

​

Our vision
We belive that recovery is about people (re)building meaningful and valued lives, where they can realize their aspirations, be treated with respect and dignity, and contribute to society. Our vision is to provide ongoing emotional and psychological support in a peer-led community setting, with professional help from experienced recovery coaches in a warm, friendly and informal environment. We also aim to create a space for clients’ self-realisation and opportunities for growth. We would like to make continuing support accessible and approachable and create a recovery community, that will help to raise awareness and put a face and voice to recovery. Our services are free of charge.

​

Our support
The LRC provides support for those engaged with and leaving clinical service provision with a view to eventual formal transfer out of these services and into longer-term support through community based recovery support services. Collaborative working is at the heart of the LRC’s approach.
