8 years ago Phil was in a horribly bad state 😱 Wasn’t really until i put the drugs down and was in Jericho for awhile that i started realise how broken i was. The Jericho staff team presented me with me at every opportunity and continued to do so through my time there and all through aftercare. I cant even begin to thank them enough for the love (most often of the tough variety) care and compassion for helping me,and all the residents who are lucky enough to walk through Jericho doors, back on my feet and the support that is still ongoing 8 years later is second to none. I work, pay my bills, have friends and relationship with my family and travel the world thanks to Jericho caring for me. Good luck in the new venture XXXXXXXXX #recoveryispossible #selfcare #supportlocal #wellbeing #wedorecover Derby City Council BBC Derby University of Derby Derbyshire Constabulary Derbyshire Police and Crime Commissioner The National Lottery Community Fund
