The Living Recovery Foundation

Jericho House Derby

We are The Living Recovery Foundation, a registered charity founded to fill the need created after the ending of the Jericho Society. Our goal is to support individuals on their journey of recovery and long-term wellbeing. After the incredible work done by the Jericho Society, we knew there still remained the need for continued care, community connection, and holistic support here in Derby.

Born from that need, The Living Recovery Foundation was established to fill the gap -offering structured after-care, personal development opportunities, and community-based support for those affected and rebuilding their lives.

We believe recovery is about more than just not using drugs and other substances, it’s about learning to live again. That’s why we focus on providing real-world tools for healing, emotional resilience, social re-connection, and self-worth. Whether it’s through peer mentoring, community outreach, family engagement, or skill-building programs, our mission is to walk alongside people as they discover their strength and write new stories for their future.
