What a day! ❤️⚽ From everyone at The Living Recovery Foundation, we’d like to say a massive thank you to Acute Business Advisory for organising such an outstanding charity football tournament in support of our work. A huge thank you also goes to everyone who made the day possible – the sponsors, partners, volunteers, referees, players, spectators and everyone working behind the scenes. Special thanks to: Acute Business Advisory Voxuna Technologies DJH Nelsons Derbyshire Institute of Sport Greenfrog Computing Opus Restructuring & Insolvency Derby County Community Trust Every volunteer, referee, supporter and participant who helped make the day such a success. A very special thank you also goes to Chantel Nicole Mclaren from ShutterandSpec Photography . ❤️ Chantel gave up her entire day (and it’s certainly not the first time she’s supported us) to capture hundreds of incredible photographs completely free of charge. These memories will last a lifetime and help us tell the story of the amazing people who came together to support our charity. If you’re looking for a talented photographer, please give Shutter & Spec a like and follow, and show Chantel some well-deserved love and support. Good people deserve good support. 📸❤️ Your generosity and hard work have raised vital funds that will directly benefit the people we support every single day. As many of you know, we’ve now opened our new 18-bed residential recovery centre, doubling our residential capacity. We’re working flat out to make sure we continue providing the same high-quality, structured, abstinence-based service that we’ve become known for over the past 20+ years. Bigger doesn’t mean different. It simply means more opportunities for people to escape addiction and rebuild their lives. Every penny raised goes directly back into supporting some of the most vulnerable people in our community during one of the darkest periods of their lives. It provides safe accommodation, food, utilities, therapeutic programmes, education, activities and the daily support needed to help someone not only get clean, but stay clean. The truth is, none of us are as far away from chaos as we’d sometimes like to believe. A few bad decisions, difficult circumstances or traumatic life events can completely change the direction of a person’s life. When someone reaches out and asks for help, they deserve the opportunity to rebuild. The support we’ve received from our local community has been nothing short of incredible, and we’re determined to repay that faith by continuing to deliver a service Derby can be proud of. If you’d like to support our work, there are plenty of ways to get involved: ❤️ Make a one-off donation. 💙 Become a regular monthly supporter. 🏃 Take on a sponsored challenge or organise a fundraising event. 🏢 Sponsor a room, project or service. 🤝 Partner with us as a local business. 🎁 Donate items or equipment to help keep our house running. 📢 Or simply share our story with someone who may need us. 🙏 Recovery doesn’t just change one life….it changes families, communities and future generations. Thank you again to Acute Business Advisory, every sponsor, volunteer, player and supporter who made this event possible. Together, we’re helping people move from surviving to thriving. ❤️🏆 #recoveryispossible #RecoveryJourney #familysupport University of Derby Derby City Council Derbyshire Constabulary Derby College Derbyshire Police and Crime Commissioner Toyota UK The National Lottery Community Fund @
