We are absolutely delighted that the Mayor of Derby, Councillor Jonathan Smale, has chosen The Living Recovery Foundation as one of his two Mayoral Charities for the year. As if that wasn’t enough, he’s now taking his support to a whole new level… by throwing himself out of a plane! ✈️🪂 Jonathan, we can’t thank you enough for your belief in our charity and the work we do. Your commitment to raising awareness and vital funds will help us continue supporting people to overcome addiction, rebuild their lives and create brighter futures. If you’re able to support Jonathan’s incredible challenge, no matter how big or small, it would mean the world to us. Every donation helps us continue changing lives and giving more people the opportunity to find lasting recovery. Good luck, Jonathan… we’ll be cheering you on every step of the way… although we’ll forgive you if you’re screaming on the way down! 😄🪂❤️ Thank you for your amazing support. #MayorOfDerby #JonathanSmale #LivingRecoveryFoundation #RecoveryIsPossible #Skydive #CharityChallenge #MakingADifference #CommunitySupport #HopeInAction #StrongerTogether 🙏❤️

We are absolutely delighted and incredibly grateful to announce that The Living Recovery Foundation has been awarded an amazing grant of £19,500 from the Severn Trent community fund 🏆 From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for believing in our vision and investing in the future of our charity. As we prepare to move into our new home and double our residential recovery capacity, this funding will make a huge difference. There is still an enormous amount of work ahead before we can open our doors. From new boilers and electrical work to a new kitchen, furniture, fittings and the many other essential improvements needed to transform a large building into a safe, welcoming and inspiring recovery environment, every penny of this grant will help us move one step closer. This isn’t just an investment in a building. It’s an investment in people, families and futures. It means more individuals will have the opportunity to access the structured support they need to overcome addiction, rebuild their lives and realise their full potential. Support like this is invaluable to charities like ours. Quite simply, we couldn’t achieve what we do without organisations such as Severn Trent standing alongside us. Thank you once again for your generosity, your confidence in our work and for helping us bring hope, recovery and opportunity to even more people across our community. We can’t wait to show you what your support has helped make possible. #ThankYou #SevernTrent #LivingRecoveryFoundation #RecoveryIsPossible #CommunitySupport #MakingADifference #HopeInAction #StrongerTogether #CharitySupport #Derby The National Lottery Community Fund BBC Derby Foundation Derbyshire Derby City Council Toyota UK Derbyshire Constabulary Derbyshire Police and Crime Commissioner University of Derby Derby Homes
