We had a fantastic day at Recovery Near You Connaught Road Hub on Thursday, where the team had organised a special Spring Wellbeing Event.
There was yoga, head massage, ear acu-seeds with Nick from Prick Up Your Ears C.I.C., haircuts with RNYs Donna, pouring paint with Christiane, mouthwatering fresh and healthy smoothies, liver checks, and some delicious food for lunch.

Well done to everyone involved for creating such a beautiful vibe and a real sense of recovery community in Wolverhampton.

SUIT were excited to visit the University of Wolverhampton last week, for an unveiling of campaign posters designed by dedicated social science and graphic design students, who will be submitting the amazing work as part of their upcoming assessments.

The posters kindly promote SUIT and are designed to raise awareness of addiction and addictive behaviours, to break the cycle of stigma and encourage positive conversations between students, tutors, and researchers who may be experiencing the pressures and isolation that can be related to studying or working in academic settings.

Massive thanks to Dr Jane Booth, Senior Lecturer in Sociology & Social Policy, who champions SUIT at every opportunity. Jane encourages her students to volunteer with us, building strong relationships and insight to help them support marginalised communities.

If you are a student or staff member at the University of Wolverhampton, look out for the brilliant poster campaign, and save the date on Wednesday 6th May, at the university’s Student Union.

Details coming soon.

If you would like to get involved, just come along. It is open to anyone registered with SUIT or Recovery Near You , no referral necessary.
