Our volunteer Matt has been there—and now he’s giving back. Using his journey through recovery to help young people make better choices, in schools across the UK. #VolunteersWeek2025. 💜 amywinehousefoundation.org/what-we-do/resilience-work-with-young-people/

Claire's story is one of strength and purpose. 💜 During #VolunteersWeek, we’re proud to share how she uses her lived experience with drugs and alcohol to support young people, through our Resilience Programme for Schools. amywinehousefoundation.org/what-we-do/resilience-work-with-young-people/

This #VolunteersWeek, meet Matt—one of our Resilience Programme for Schools volunteers. He's turned his own experience with addiction into something powerful: helping young people stay safe and make better choices. 💜 amywinehousefoundation.org/what-we-do/resilience-work-with-young-people/

Today we were devastated to hear that our dear friend Paul Danan has passed away. He always championed our work, and volunteered as part of our Resilience Programme. Here he is on our programme launch day in 2013, with some of our volunteers. Such a beautiful soul. RIP Pauly ❤️x

Happy Christmas x

This week we’ve seen great engagement from yrs 7, 8 & 9 pupils at Sandymoor Ormiston Academy in #Runcorn. Our volunteer Sarah shared her personal experience of #addiction starting with #nicotine from a young age. Pupils then participated in smaller workshops to understand issues around #vaping.

As #AddictionAwarenessWeek2024 ends, we want you to know that it's never too late to ask for support. And also, it's never too early. If you feel you can't reach out for help because you're too young — you can. People will listen. People will help. #recoveryispossible

Jessica is a resident at Amy’s Place, our #Recovery house for young women. “I’m very proud of myself. I had no confidence unless I was using drugs or alcohol. I would always hide from the world — but now I don’t hide. " amywinehousefoundation.org/jessica/ #RecoveryIsPossible #AAW2024

Recovery gave my life a second chance." Kelly is a volunteer, and ex-resident, at our recovery house for young women, Amy's Place. This #AddictionAwarenessWeek we want everyone to know that #RecoveryIsPossible. And that you too can find a full life, free from drugs and alcohol. #AAW24

We're very proud to be part of this year's #AddictionAwarenessWeek2024 — and to let you know that recovery from drug and alcohol problems is possible for EVERYONE. No matter how young or old they are.
